Probably has been asked before but I just want to make sure I am doing this right.

After creating a revision of a project, the revision (Rev 0 or Rev 1 ...) is the one that is locked down at that time. To open the job in SI Text to edit it further you do so by selecting "OPEN" and the format you want to open it in under the Selected Projects Details Tab and it will open what may become the next revision, correct? This is the same as the last revision you have until you edit an item, right?

Thanks for the help, have done several projects, but not many revisions until now and want to make sure I am not screwing it all up!

The way I think of it as described to me is when you create your first revision, you are taking a snapshot of your project in its current state:

*[Your Project] <--- Rev 0*

When it asks you to name your revision, it is asking you to name your project in its current state, not what you are about to change. Any changes you make after the first revision are being made in revision 1.

If you create another revision you are now snapshotting revision 1 (noted in *)

[Your Project] <--- Rev 0 | *[Your Project] <--- Rev 1*

Promoting a previous revision grabs the selected snapshot and places it into the next revision number.

EX: Promoting Rev 0

[Your Project] <-- Rev 0 | [Your Project] <-- Rev 1 | [Your Project from Rev 0] <-- Rev 3

I hope this helps and is not too confusing, I had the same questions myself.
