Undo and Redo

Most actions you perform in Quick Fields can be undone. The opposite of undo is redo, which reverses the undo. There are two different types of undo/redo features.

Undo/Redo

This feature enables you to undo or redo an action performed on a specific item in the Session Configuration Pane or Document Revision Pane. Each item has its own undo/redo history. To use this feature, select an item (e.g., a process or document) and click Undo or Redo under Edit in the menu bar. You can also click the Undo or Redo button on the toolbar.

Example: Chris selects Document 1 and changes the value of its Type field. Next, he selects Document 2 and changes its Author field. If he selects Document 1 again, then Undo, the change made to the Type field will be undone. If he selects Document 2 again, then Undo, the change made to the Author field will be undone.

Keep the following points in mind when using the item undo/redo feature:

• This feature can be used on document class properties (e.g., volume setting, document length, count token).
• Some actions cannot be undone. These actions include:
  
  
  • Deleting a document
  • Deleting a page
  • Reordering pages
  • Combining documents
  • Splitting a document
  • Creating a new document from the selected pages
  • Moving the selected document to a new folder
  • Any action performed during scanning and processing (e.g., you cannot undo an image enhancement performed on a scanned document)
• All undo/redo histories will be erased when the session is closed.

Configuration Undo/Redo

This feature enables you to undo/redo the deletion, reordering, disabling, and renaming of a document class, image enhancement, or process. To use it, click Configuration Undo or Configuration Redo under Edit in the menu bar. You can also click the Undo Configuration or Redo Configuration button on the toolbar.

Example: Misty deletes Process A from the Session Configuration Pane then adds Process B. If she selects Configuration Undo once, Process B will be deleted. If she selects Configuration Undo again, Process A will be restored.

Keep the following points in mind when using the configuration undo/redo feature:

• Unlike item undo/redo, it does not matter what you have selected when you use this feature.
• Some local image enhancements actions cannot be undone. For example, if you delete a local enhancement, it cannot be recovered via configuration undo.
• All configuration undo/redo histories will be erased when the session is closed.
