Undoing, redoing, and repeating actions

You can undo the actions that you perform in a drawing, starting with the most recent action. If you don’t like the result of undoing an action, you can redo it. Reverting to the last saved version of a drawing also lets you remove one or more actions. Certain actions applied to objects, such as stretching, filling, moving, and rotating, can be repeated to create a stronger visual effect.

Customizing the Undo settings lets you increase or decrease the number of actions that you can undo or redo.

To undo, redo, and repeat actions


To	Do the following
Undo an action	Click Edit Undo.
Redo an action	Click Edit Redo.
Undo or redo a series of actions	Click Tools Undo. In the Undo docker, click the action that precedes all the actions that you want to undo, or click the last undone action that you want to redo.
Revert to the last saved version of a drawing	Click File Revert.
Repeat an action	Click Edit Repeat.

When you undo a series of actions in the Undo docker, all actions listed below the action that you click are undone.

When you redo a series of actions in the Undo docker, the action that you click and all preceding undone actions are redone.

You can repeat an action on another object or group of objects by selecting the object or objects and clicking Edit

Repeat.

You can also undo or redo a series of actions by clicking the arrow button next to the Undo button

or Redo button

on the Standard toolbar and choosing an action from the list.

To specify the Undo settings

Click Tools

Options.

In the Workspace list of categories, click General.

Type a value in one or both of the following boxes:

•

Regular — specifies the number of actions that can be reversed when you use the Undo command with vector objects

•

Bitmap effects — specifies the number of actions that can be reversed when you work with bitmap effects

The value that you specify is limited only by your computer’s memory resources. The higher the value you specify, the greater the demand on memory resources.
