About the History Palette

The History palette lists each command you apply to the active image. The most recent action appears at the top of the list. The History palette gives you the ability to quickly undo and redo actions applied to the current image. In addition to its basic Undo and Redo To Here functions, the History Palette also offers several additional powerful and time-saving functions:

Displaying and Hiding the History Palette

Display this palette by choosing View > Palettes > History, or by pressing F3.

To hide the palette, click its Close button in the upper right corner of the title bar, or choose the menu item again, or press F3 again.

Setting the Number of Saved Commands in the History Palette

By default, the History palette will list the 250 most recently executed commands on the active image. To set this value higher or lower:

  1. Choose File > Preferences > General Program Preferences.

  2. Click the Undo tab.

  3. Make sure the Enable the undo system check box is marked.

  4. Set the Limit undo/redo to n steps per open image to the desired value. As mentioned above, the default value is 250. Steps older than 250 will become undoable steps, only 10 of which will be retained as defined by the next setting.

  5. The Non-undoable steps after the last non-undoable step value, as mentioned above, sets the number of non-undoable steps that will be retained after the last non-undoable step limit has been reached. The default value is 10.

Note: Non-undoable steps cannot be undone or redone anymore. They can, however, be reapplied to the current image or other open images, can be saved to the Quickscript, or as a regular PspScript file, or copied to the clipboard.
