Archiving and deleting screens

Sometimes you may want to remove a screen from your prototype. Depending on your needs, you can either archive or delete a screen.

Archiving vs deleting

Archiving a screen removes that screen from your prototype. However, it can still be restored at any time. Restoring a screen will also restore any comments or hotspots that were on that screen.

Note: To restore a hotspot, both the source screen and the destination screen must be unarchived. If the destination screen remains archived, the hotspot on the source screen will not appear.

Deleting a screen permanently removes that screen—and any of its comments or hotspots—from your prototype. This action cannot be undone.

Archiving screens

To archive a screen:

1. Sign in to your account and navigate to the Projects page.
2. Click your desired prototype.
3. Hover over your selected screen. Navigate to the top-right corner and click the ••• button.
4. Click the Archive icon ().
5. To confirm, click Yes, Archive.

 

To archive multiple screens:

1. Sign in to your account and navigate to the Projects page.
2. Click your desired prototype.
3. Hover over your selected screen. Navigate to the top-left corner and click the circle.
4. Repeat the previous step for all screens that you want to archive.
5. At the bottom of the page, click the Archive icon ().

Note: There is currently not a way to bulk unarchive screens. To restore multiple screens, you will need to unarchive each screen individually.

Unarchiving screens

To unarchive a screen:

1. Sign in to your account and navigate to the Projects page.
2. Click your desired prototype.
3. Directly above the prototype screens, click the Screens tab.
4. From the drop-down menu, click Archived Screens.
5. Hover over the desired screen and click Unarchive.

Note: The screen will not be restored to its original location—it will appear as the last screen in your prototype. You can reorder the screen as needed.
