Restoring a version in Overleaf v2
I would like to restore a version that is less than 24 hours old. In Overleaf v2, I can find the version in history and label it. I can also compare it to the current state and download it but in none of this options the track changes follow, I can't see them and if I re-upload the version, they are not there.
I accidentally selected all the text from the main file and pressed a key, everything was deleted. I pressed ctl Z and the text came back but all the changes were gone and there were a lot since we are 5 authors. The comments are the only thing that remain but they all got pushed down at the bottom and I can't see what they were attached to.
I need to restore a previous version (and hope that the track changes will be alright) or revert to 24 hour before. I saw there was an option for that but all the help pages I am finding are with the v1 layout and I can't find these functionalities anywhere in the v2 platform.
Thanks for your help.
