FigRay DocsProject Library, History, and Cloud Saving
Manage scientific figure projects, image history, favorites, SVG assets, and cloud synchronization.
What a Project Stores
Each project records its title, original prompt, figure type, generation model, current image, image history, and conversation. After vectorization and saving, the project can also contain a current SVG asset.
FigRay uses three persistence layers:
| Location | Content | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Browser data | Pending images and temporary project data | Temporary fallback for network or cloud save failures |
| Database | Project metadata, history references, and conversation | Search and restore the project structure for the account |
| Cloud object storage | Raster images and SVG files | Store the actual visual assets |
A browser fallback does not mean cloud synchronization is complete. Keep the page open and retry when a save error appears.
Project Library Actions
Search and sort
Find projects by name and organize work by recent updates and other views.
Favorite
Keep active paper, grant, or presentation projects in the saved view.
Rename
Use a study, figure number, or status instead of a long-lived generated title.
SVG projects
View projects that have been vectorized and saved as editable SVG assets.
Delete
Remove the project record and clean up its associated cloud assets.
Image History and Restore
Before replacing the current image, FigRay attempts to add the previous image to project history. Restore a version when:
- a follow-up prompt changed content that should have remained fixed;
- a text edit or region redraw did not produce the intended result;
- an upscale or white-background result introduced artifacts;
- a new editing direction should start from an earlier revision.
After restoring, confirm that the selected image is current and saved. Export
important milestones locally, for example Figure-2-approved.svg or
Graphical-abstract-v3.png.

Deleting a project normally removes both its project data and associated cloud assets.
- Export any PNG, SVG, or PPTX files that must be retained.
- Confirm that no paper or presentation still depends on the project.
- Check whether the approved version and drafts share the same project.
- Return to the library after deletion and confirm that the list updated.
For cloud synchronization errors, see Troubleshooting.
