## The chat *with* a document
Drag any document onto the chat panel to "dock" it side-by-side. You can edit the
document and ask the assistant questions about it at the same time, without the
panel covering your work.
## What's next
You've now seen the four most-used surfaces — sidebar, palette, chat, and the
notification bell. Time to build something real:

/ slash menu inside any document, expand the
Templates category and pick one to insert as a sub-tree.
The new document carries the lock configuration with it. Editing the template
later does **not** retroactively change instances; instances are independent.
## Versioning
Editing a published template creates a new **version**. Every version has a
number (v1, v2, v3) and an optional changelog. Documents track which version
they spawned from, so you can prompt users when a newer version exists ("v3
is available — review changes").
You can roll back: open the template's version history, pick an older
version, click Restore. This creates a new version equal to
the older one, preserving the audit chain.
## Sharing across workspaces
Templates that are workspace-only stay inside one workspace. To share with
others — a sister workspace, your whole org, or the public dalea.market — see
[Publishing to dalea.market](/templates-marketplace/publishing-to-dalea-market).
