Troubleshooting: Why Did My Version Number Change

Version numbering is sequential. If a version is deleted, the remaining versions are renumbered to remove gaps.

Why it changed

If a project had Versions #1, #2, #3, and #4, and Version #2 was deleted, the later versions are renumbered so the project now shows #1, #2, and #3 instead of leaving a gap.

What stays true

The stored version data still belongs to the same underlying version records; the visible numbering is just kept clean and sequential for the user experience.

How to work with it

If the version name matters to you, use version naming alongside the number. A clear version name is the best way to preserve the meaning of a scenario comparison across edits and deletes.
