Undoing SOE's

How can I undo a SOE where I selected extrude upwards instead of extude downward by mistake? The undo button doesn't work and the SOE operator tool allows only the cancelling of operators not targets. In this particular case I can select the operator (slab) and cancel the operations which works for 2 other SOE's but not for this particular SOE. I can't select the wall and cancel the effect of any SOE operator on it? Am I missing something?

Just to clarify if i select the target I want to remove the SOE on (a wall) clicking cancel "...all operators" does not delete the SOE action. i don't want to delete and re-do the wall as this will be tedious.

just found in another thread on this. You need to bring up the SEO window, select your target and hit the button ... All Operators. I had the same issue just now, tried this, and for me it worked.

Hope it will for you as well.

It didn't seem to work when I first tried that but I came back to the view later and it had fixed itself so maybe it was some sort of refreshing issue. Cheers.

Yes, you may need to rebuild to see the result of canceling a SEO operation.

You can't cancel an SOE operation without putting lives at risk.
