Changes not saved or a design came back different

Cali-Graf saves every change on its own. If the connection drops, changes wait in this browser and are sent later. If two tabs or devices edit the same roof, the newer saved version wins — History brings back an earlier one.

How saving works in general: How your work is saved. Below is what each message means and how to get your work back.

Saving

What you seeWhat to do
OfflineThe roof editor can’t reach the server. Keep working; changes are kept in this browser and sent when the connection is back. Don’t clear the browser’s data meanwhile.
Could not save … — the changes are kept in this browser and saved when the connection is backThe same in the calculator. Nothing to do but wait for the connection.
Could not save to this calculation: …The server refused the change. Reload the page and make the change again. If it keeps happening, write to calisolargroup@gmail.com with the message.

If your sign-in runs out, Cali-Graf asks you to sign in again; unsent changes wait in the browser and are sent after you sign in.
