Using image revisions in a workspace
Image revisions allow you to replace an image in your Bluescape workspace while keeping a history of previous versions. This makes it easy to update images, compare changes, and switch between revisions without having to upload and organize multiple copies in your workspace.
Image Revisions are especially useful when collaborating on designs, reviewing creative assets, or working with content that changes over time.
Replacing an Image
You can replace any image in your workspace with a new image from your computer.
To replace an image:
-
Select the image you want to replace in your workspace.
-
Click the Replace Image
icon in the image toolbar. -
Select the new image from your computer.
-
The selected image is replaced with the new version in your workspace.
The previous image is automatically saved in the revision history, allowing you to access it again at any time.
BluePro Tip: Use Image Revisions to update images without having to delete and reinsert them into your workspace. This helps keep your content organized and makes it easier to manage changes over time.

Common Ways to Use Image Revisions
Image Revisions make it easier to manage visual content as it evolves. Here are three common ways to use this feature:
1. Review Design Iterations
Keep track of changes to designs, mockups, and other creative assets as your team works through multiple iterations.
Replace an image with an updated design and switch between revisions to review how it has evolved.
2. Update Maps and Visual Information
Replace maps, diagrams, or other visual references as new information becomes available.
Previous versions remain accessible, making it easy to reference earlier information or compare changes over time.
3. Collaborate on Creative Reviews
Use Image Revisions to share updated creative assets with your team while keeping previous versions available for reference.
This is especially useful for reviewing marketing materials, presentation graphics, and other visual content that goes through multiple rounds of feedback.
