Undo/Redo Capability
Now you can use the standard Ctrl+Z key combination to undo the most recent change (in most cases). You can keep pressing it to undo the commands in reversed order. Likewise, you can press Ctrl+Y to redo a command that�s just undone. Undo / Remo supports most operations throughout the editor, but some intricate changes cannot be supported.
When a wizard is involved, however, you can restore to the status before the wizard is opened, but not undoing detailed steps within that wizard. In addition, directly editing object data cannot be undone.
