# Save Drafts And Undo Changes In The Editor

> Save your work in the editor, undo or redo changes, and avoid losing edits when you leave.

> **For AI agents:** a documentation index is at [/llms.txt](/llms.txt). Every page is also available as markdown, just append `.md` to the URL.

## Overview

Your edits in the editor are saved as a draft of the clip. A saved draft keeps your changes, so you can close the editor and come back later. Exporting then renders that draft as a final video.

## Save Your Work

* Click **Save** in the top right corner, or
* Press **⌘S** (Ctrl+S on Windows).

The status next to the clip title shows **Saving…** while it saves and **Saved** when it's done. You'll see **Draft saved** to confirm.

## Undo And Redo

| Action | Toolbar | Shortcut (Mac) | Shortcut (Windows) |
| - | - | - | - |
| Undo | **Undo** | ⌘Z | Ctrl+Z |
| Redo | **Redo** | ⌘⇧Z | Ctrl+Shift+Z |

The **Undo** and **Redo** buttons sit at the left of the timeline toolbar.

## Leaving The Editor With Unsaved Changes

If you try to leave with changes you haven't saved, Reap asks **Leave without saving?**

* **Keep editing** returns you to the editor.
* **Leave anyway** discards your unsaved changes.
* **Save** saves your changes before you leave.

## Saving Before You Export

Save before you click **Export** so your saved draft and your exported video match. If you export with unsaved changes, Reap reminds you with **Export started. Save your latest changes before leaving.**

## Start Over From Your Last Save

To throw away every change since your last save, use **Reset Timeline** in **Timeline settings**. This can't be undone. See [Timeline Settings](/help-center/timeline-settings).
