Applied Parameters: None

Summary

This feature is used to restore changes made by the Undo feature, in the current document. Multiple levels of Redo are supported.

Access

This command can be accessed from the Schematic Editor and the Schematic Library Editor, by:

Choosing the Edit » Redo command from the main menus.
Clicking the button on the Schematic Standard toolbar (Schematic Editor), or Sch Lib Standard toolbar (Schematic Library Editor).
Using the Ctrl+Y keyboard shortcut.

The command only becomes available provided the Undo command has been used.

Use

After launching the command, the last command to be undone by the Undo operation will be 'redone', and the document will be returned to its state prior to the last Undo taking place. You can determine how many operations can be redone, by defining the Undo/Redo stack. This is done by entering a value in the Stack Size field, on the Schematic - Graphical Editing page of the Preferences dialog. Setting the value to zero will clear the stack and effectively disable the Undo/Redo feature.

Tips

There is no practical limit to the stack size except available memory. However, the stack size should be kept reasonably small so as not to unduly impinge on performance, due to the stack filling with large scale changes. The default setting is 50.
