# Comments and edits

> Refine Rheos drafts with highlight-to-comment AI rewrites, accept changes one by one in a diff review, and make inline manual edits without losing work.

Rheos drafts are starting points, not finished posts. You'll usually tweak two or three
times before publishing. The **Unified Post Editor** gives you a few ways to do it.

## One-shot comments

The fastest way to refine. Highlight any sentence in the post body and a **comment
popover** appears. Type a short instruction:

* "Make this punchier"
* "Shorten by half"
* "Add a stat"
* "Sound less corporate"
* "Switch to UK English"
* "Make this funnier without being cringe"

Rheos rewrites the text you highlighted and shows you the result as a reviewable diff —
it doesn't overwrite your draft until you approve it.

<Tip>
  Short, blunt instructions beat polite paragraphs. "Punchier" is better than "could you
  possibly make this slightly more punchy?".
</Tip>

## Review the changes before they land

When Rheos proposes a rewrite, a **Review Changes** panel opens. It shows the edit inline:
new text in **green**, removed text in **red strike-through**, so you can see exactly
what changed. A character-count badge turns red if the rewrite pushes you over a
platform's limit.

You're in control of what gets applied:

* Each change is grouped with its **Original** and **Suggestion** side by side. Each
  group has a **Keep** / **Revert** toggle — keep the changes you want, revert the ones
  you don't. **All** and **None** at the top set every group at once.
* **Apply selected** — apply the changes you kept, drop the reverted ones.
* **Accept all** — take the whole rewrite.
* **Cancel** — discard the suggestion and leave your draft untouched.

<Note>
  Nothing is written to your post until you hit **Apply selected** or **Accept all**.
  Cancel and you're exactly where you started.
</Note>

## Inline editing

The post body is a normal editor. Select anywhere and just type — fix a typo, swap a
word, add a line. Auto-save keeps your changes. This is the right tool for small,
deterministic edits where you know exactly what you want.

## Changing the angle

For a bigger shift — "this should be a contrarian post, not an educational one" — you
don't rewrite the text yourself. The post's **intent** (Sell, Educate, Prove, Connect,
Provoke, Inspire, Announce, Entertain) is set when you start the post and steers the
whole draft. Change the intent and regenerate to rebuild the post around the new angle
rather than nudging it line by line.

See [the unified post editor](/help/posts/unified-post-editor) for where intent and
formula live in the start flow.

## Regenerating visuals

For images, carousel slides and video scenes, open the **Attachments** panel or select
the visual to re-prompt, re-roll, swap from your **Library**, or change the design type.
Your text stays put.

## Version history

Rheos snapshots your post before each change, so you can roll back if a recent edit made
things worse. Open **version history** (the clock icon) in the editor — you'll see
restore points labelled by what they preceded, like **Before AI edit**, **Manual save**
and **Before brainstorm pick**.

<Note>
  Because every save and AI edit is snapshotted first, you can always get back to where
  you were a few steps ago.

## When to use which

| Want to…                           | Use                                   |
| ---------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
| Fix a typo or swap one word        | Inline edit                           |
| Rewrite a sentence                 | One-shot comment → **Review Changes** |
| Change the angle of the whole post | Change intent + regenerate            |
| Replace an image                   | Attachments panel                     |
| Go back to an earlier version      | Version history                       |

A good workflow: start the post, comment-edit two or three lines and accept the changes
you like, regenerate the visual, then select **Publish**. You'll finish most posts in a few minutes.
