Where is the dialog box that lists operations I performed?

In Revit or AutoCad, I forget which, there is a dialog box that keeps track of the operations you performed. When you hit the "Undo" button, it backs up the list. You can click in the list to undo all operations past a specific point or you can scroll through the list to see how far back you did a particular operation.
I am sure there is something like that in Archicad. Where is it? I need it so I can see how far back I did a cut with the solid element operations and I don't want to back up too far and blow off anything I did prior to that operation. Help!

There is no undo history list in ArchiCAD. You can set how many undo steps will be recorded in the Work Environment > Company Standards Schemes > Data Safety panel. This will affect all projects as long as that work environment is loaded.

Cheers,

To undo a SEO, you use the SEO dialog to cancel specific operations.

That would be the text window in Autocad. Archicad doesn't have anything like it, though it you watch the Undo commands in the Edit menu, you will see what it's about to Undo.

If you Undo too far, you can Redo all the commands you removed through Undo.

And once you click "save" the recorded steps resets back to zero. So any steps you want to undo prior to saving can't be undone. (at least on my machine)
