    Hi,

    I am working on a project on shared workspace.
    Is there any option to see revisions of my design and compare those revisions with each other?

    Hi LogicNet,

    In workspace we have option to view revisions of project published to shared workspace.

    You can download and use design compare for making comparison of DSN files.
    Try this hope it helps.

    You can change it from Options>Preferences>Part Not Present. Change the color from grey to different color.
    This will get reflected for DNI parts.

    Try this.

    Yes, it works.

    Can you also tell if there is any option to change "Do not Stuff" text to some custom text name like "Do Not Inlcude"?

    Here is the snapshot from where you can chance the Do Not Stuff text to Do Not Include as per your requirement.

     

    Changing this text will reflect for DNI parts.

    You can access it from Options>CIS Configuration>Administrative Preferences.

     

    Hope this helps.

    Yes this is working.

    Are the projects which are visible in my local workspace stored in my local PC?

    Ok, so for your local workspace, projects are stored in home location.
    Open Fole explorer>In address bar type %home%
    There you will find folder structure as below


    The projects are stored here inside projects folder of workspace.
