## Every change starts included

Incorporate shows what the draft line would change in Main as markup on the page: what comes out, what goes in, and a Bring in or Leave out choice under each change. The bar at the foot of the page counts what is coming in.

Nothing moves until you choose Incorporate, and a save point lets you return to the draft from before.

## What you leave out stays on the draft line

A change you leave out is not lost. It stays on its draft line, so you can bring it in later or keep working on it there.

For an experiment on one scene, a take compares and lands that scene on its own.
