Undo and Redo

Most actions you perform in Quick Fields 8 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.

Example: Blake 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.

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