I just wanted to check out how versions work. So the timemachine like window opened and I just switched back and forth between some versions.

Beside I really don’t have a clue how I should select a version by understanding the differences to the current document, RW locked up. It seems that for every clicked version, the stacks inspector is opened in the background.

I was unable to get out of this screen (is there a trick?) nor did clicking on the buttons helped.

I found out that the current document is actually somehow live (but very, very slow) and opened a preferences dialog, which exited this full screen mode stuff. Then RW crashed and I was free…
