Thanks. And are there any actions that can not be Undone or Redone?

Yes, but it warns you first - like section deletions.....

I also just discovered that a complex profile, once changed, can't be undone automatically - it must be done manually.

... and you can't undo beyond a Save.

Many times i wish that a "Save" could be undone.

Probably should be in wishlist - the undo list should be accessible so that only user selected ones can be undone (if so desired) in no particular order - I have seen similar on other software

Related to the Undo command. one of my favorite Autocad commands was OOPS. You could delete a bunch of items, carry on doing stuff, then go OOPS and the last set of items deleted returned. It was handy for all sorts of things, not just mistakes.

An existing wish is to introduce a History, like Photoshop, where we could go back to specific commands and undo them.

Unfortunately PS's History isn't an individual action undo, but it undoes ALL the way back to the history item. You'd think in 2008, software would enable you to undo a single item no matter where it is in the history list.

And what do you expect when you remove the creation of an element, somewhere in the stack and on another place in the stack you create a copy of the (removed) element?
Or if you make a selection, copy it etc... when things in the past change.

While it might seem appealing, you better start thinking about movies such as "Back to the future", where changes in the past have deep impact on the current...
