gvSIG-Desktop 1.1. Manual de usuario.

The command stack is a tool which allows you to undo/redo several commands at once. It also provides information about the commands carried out, such as the name and time they were carried out.

The command stack can be activated in different ways.

By clicking on the tool bar icon shown below.

By selecting the menu bar option "File" then going to "Command stack". The command stack saves all the commands given on the layer being edited since the last time it was saved.

You can select the commands you wish to undo in the slider control. You can move the slider control up or down until you have positioned it in the order in which you wish to continue working.

You must remember that you cannot undo one specific command, you have to undo all the commands given up to that point, i.e. we have to go to the last step we wish to keep and continue editing from this point. For example, let us suppose that we take eleven steps and when we reach the eleventh step, we realise that step number six is incorrect. We cannot simply go to step 6 and cancel it, we have to undo the eleventh, tenth, ninth steps, etc. until we get to the fifth one. The advantage of using the command stack is that we can undo all the changes at once without having to undo them one by one. In addition, we know which steps we are undoing.
