# Editor

## Is there an auto-save feature?

After the initial save, it auto-saves every 5 minutes. Also, the time of the last save is shown at the top right.

## I saved the drawing, but it disappeared

You need to press the \[Save] button from time to time while working so the project is saved. If you've saved it but still can't find it, please check once more whether you're logged into the same account you used before!

## The drawing I was working on disappeared. Can't it be recovered?

Only the project's final data can be brought over, and the feature to restore previous data is not currently implemented in the service.

If you use Arkisketch with multiple tabs open, previous work may be overwritten, causing duplicate save issues. This can risk unintentionally changing the project you're working on.

**Tips for safe work**

* Avoid using multiple tabs and complete your work in a single tab.
* Be sure to save changes manually to prevent data loss.
* Before closing the project, check the final saved state once more.

Keep your work environment safe and protect your valuable project!

## It's a new apartment, so there are no floor plans

There are two ways to create a floor plan when one doesn't exist.

* Request a floor plan: If you have a floor plan image that includes measurements, please request a floor plan upload.
* Draw the floor plan yourself: You can upload a floor plan image and draw the floor plan yourself.\

## All the carefully decorated interior furniture disappeared.

Did you happen to add another floor while working? Try selecting a different floor in the floor plan. Clicking the arrow on the right side of the floor plan will show detailed information. If you check another floor, the furniture may appear.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.archisketch.com/guide/faq-1/service/editor.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
