IPad, undo button how to undo?

Hi.  I was typing a very long entry in my calendar (flight confirmation, hotel confirmation) and so forth.  Was almost done and hit shift.
Well the keyboard switched to the alternate set and the undo button was hit instead of shift and all my typing was erased.
How to undo that?  Shaking it doesn't make undo appear.
Or am I stuck typing it all over? 

Maybe I figured it out.
When Reader allows you to add text, highlight or leave comments, you can edit them.  There is no menu to indicate this, or a backbutton, which this android / PC user is used to finding in an OS.  No, it is more subtle.  You simply press on the item you wish to change, and a submenu will appear as well as handles to drag.  A bit obtuse, but oh so intuitive!

    Hi
    I'm new to Dreamweaver and I'm having two issues which I would like some help with.
    1st, the Undo button will not 'Undo' any changes I've made.

    Helpful comments please.

  • Disable "undo" button in pages for iPad

    Hi!
    Is there any way to disable the "undo" button that appears in the on-screen keyboard in Pages for iPad? I can't count the number of times I have been furiously typing away when I accidentally hit that and undid paragraph upon paragraph of work! Of course by the time I realized what happened, I had already typed more and trying to "redo" is not an option.
    In lieu of that, if there is any way to disable the "undo" feature altogether?
    Thanks!

    +1 ... I really don't even see the point of this button, when does one write a page of information and decide "it sure would be helpful to have an undo button next to the period symbol right about now"?  Isn't that what "select all" and "backspace" are for?

    Put the device back into discovery mode and the iPad will see it again. Make sure the Bluetooth is ON in Settings and look at the devices seen.

  • How to undo shorten track length

    I had a "custom" 24 bar track recorded and accidentally hit the new "bent arrow" button, which shortened the track back to 8 bars (I really wish I could set the track length to unlimited but whatever).
    Garageband does not offer the "undo" command for this change when I shake the iPad.  Anyone know how to revert and regain the lost track without restoring the entire iPad?
    TIA
    - Jake

    FIrst of all, what you see is the Audio Region not the Audio File.
    The Audio Region is just a reference to an Audio File, the actual recording. An Audio Region cannot be resized (left or right border) beyond the boundaries of its referrenced Audio File. So per definition, there is no "unlimited" length, unless you talk about "looping"
    The "bent arrow" is the Loop Handle. This only sets the boundary of the repetition and not the length of the Audio Region (which again is only referrenced to its Audio File). The Loop range can be set all the way to the end of the Section of you Project, or your Project if you use only one Section per Project
    About "nondestructive editing". It works. Whatever action you do to the Audio Region (delete, trim, loop) can be undone with the Undo  button.
    Hope that helps

  • How to undo the changed record!

    Hi
    I have edit a record in my form (haven't been saved). Now, I want to undo the changes on my record. How can I do that?
    Thanks

    lenyhu,
    Since get_item_property always returns a varchar2 value, your line:
    .. rowidtochar(get_item_property(:system..is the cause of the error.
    I'm not exactly sure why do you want to use rowids, when you can copy the database value back into the item.
    Please take a look at the code below, which you can copy to the When-Button-Pressed trigger of your UNDO button:
    declare
    l_first_item varchar2(100);
    l_last_item varchar2(100);
    l_curr_item varchar2(100);
    l_curr_block varchar2(30);
    begin
    l_curr_block := :system.cursor_block;
    l_first_item := l_curr_block | |'.'| | get_block_property(:system.cursor_block, first_item);
    l_last_item := l_curr_block | |'.'| | get_block_property(:system.cursor_block, last_item);
    go_item(l_first_item);
    l_curr_item := :system.cursor_item;
    while l_curr_item <> l_last_item loop
    copy(get_item_property(l_curr_item, database_value), l_curr_item);
    go_item(get_item_property(l_curr_item, nextitem));
    l_curr_item := :system.cursor_item;
    end loop;
    record_property(:system.cursor_record, l_curr_block,
    status,
    query_status);
    go_item(l_first_item);
    end;I believe this code is 100% generic.
    Please, don't forget to change the UNDO button's Mouse Navigate and Keyboard Navigable properties both to NO.
    If you have any problems understading my code, just ask.
    Hope this helps,
    Pedro

    Hi guys, I have a big problem! My bookmark shortcut entry(command D) does not work anymore and do you know by any changes how to undo resetting of Safari? Thnx a million

    Try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file.
    Quit Safari.
    Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
    Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. Try a bookmark.
    If that didn't help, check Safari / Preferences then select the Extensions tab. If you have any installed, turn that off, quit then relaunch Safari.
    If Extensions aren't the issue, reset Safari. From the menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.

  • Is there no 'Undo' button in Photoshop CS3 ?

    Hello again, and thank you for your time.
    So far I'm only finding 2 choices:
    1. Edit>Undo (for a single undo action)
    2. Ctrl+Z (for multiple undo actions)
    I'm not a fan of searching the keyboard for short cuts if I can just
    click on the screen. (Ctrl+Z=pain in the *** for me)
    Is there a button available?
    A 'back' or 'undo' button?
    I bet CS4 has one . . .  should have waited for CS4 . . .
    Thanks again for the help,
    Brad

    Hello everybody!
    I wrote an on-screen 'undo' button for Photoshop which you can download from (and read the details regarding) here. . .
    http://www.iboxpublishing.com/index_on-screen-undo-button-for-photoshop.php#top_of_news
    I wrote it because, while Ctrl-Alt-Z works, if you happen to be working on a Tablet PC screen, (as I am these days), then it is very handy to have a little button you can tap on-screen with the stylus to undo the last action in Photoshop. It's an intuitive and sensible tool.
    The button is tested in WinXP and should work in later versions of Windows, and I've posted both the .exe as well as the script (for AutoHotKey) in which I've written full explanations using language designed for non-programmers, (ahem, artists), so that you can easily understand how the button works and how you can change it to suit your own needs and tastes.
    As popularity of the Digital Drafting Board increases, (draw-on-the-screen-tablets, that is), tools like this one are going to be increasingly useful. Until somebody comes along and writes a proper on-screen interactive (and programmable) tool set, artists are going to have to make do with what we can cobble together on our own. I've found this tool very useful, (I use it every day), and so perhaps it might also benefit others out there.
    Hope that helps!

  • Webi Undo Button Disabled

    Hi,
    I'm trying to do some webi reports and my undo button is disabled.Please guid me how to enable it and i'm curious to know the reasons for this error.

    Hi Jack,
    Following information might be helpful in resolving the issue issue.
    Symptom
    An OLAPI (.car) file published to BusinessObjects XI Release 2 can be viewed through .NET and Java InfoView. In .NET InfoView the Undo and Redo buttons work as expected, but in the Java InfoView, changes made in the OLAP worksheet cannot be undone or redone because these buttons are always unavailable.
    Steps to Reproduce
    Login to the Java InfoView and view a .car file in the DHTML viewer. Make changes in the worksheet and you will see that the undo button and the redo button are not available no matter what changes you do in the worksheet, or any other part of the .car file.
    Cause
    This functionality was never implemented for OLAPI (.car) files in the Java InfoView with the DHTML Viewer.
    This is a known issue and has been assigned Track ID # ADAPT00582099.
    Resolution
    This issue has been resolved in Service Pack 3.
    The undo/redo buttons will work in Windows Java DHTML client only. This functionality has not been included for the UNIX builds.
    Regards,
    Sarbhjeet Kaur

  • Undo Button

    I am making a program for a beginner Java class project that is similar to paint. It has a pencil, eraser, crop tool, Saving and Opening stuff, simple things like that. I am trying to make an Undo button that goes back one step.
    Heres how it works: All of the editing is done in MouseDragged. Everytime MouseClicked is called, I do this:
    undoImage = current;
    ug.dispose();
    ug = undoImage.getGraphics();undoImage and current are both BufferedImages. I For some reason, it works with the crop tool, but undoImage changes as I edit current with the pencil and eraser and nothing happens when I click undo.
    Any ideas?

    That's what I'm trying to do. I do undoImage = current; (current is the Image that the user is drawing on) in MouseClicked. Then. MouseDragged regulates the drawing (the eraser has a drawOval in it, so everytime MouseDragged is called, a white oval is drawn). But for some reason, the undoImage mimicks the current Image. I tried drawing them both on the screen at the same time and undoImage changed with current, even though there is nothing about undo in MouseDragged. However, like I said, it works when I crop...

  • Undo button is killing me

    I want to kill the undo button!  I hit it all the time when going for the "." And because I type fast I always type more than one char so the dumb shake "feature" doesn't work.  Anyone else driven crazy and losing lots of posts and emails due to undo?

    As mentioned in the posta above:
    "I get to quote marks by long touching the period/question mark on the main keyboard...."
    This only works on the iPad, not on the iPhone. the ./? key is not on the main keyboard on the iPhone or iPod Touch.

    "Undo" button appears on iPad 3 screen's keyboard by tapping  "?123" button. But I can't find the ""undo" on the iPod Touch keyboard. The Delete button is such an over eager little thing,  I've lost the chart I was working on. Fiendish!

    how do you UNLOCK the orientation? Accidentaly locked as protrait & want to retrun use of landscape Manual does not say how to undo.

    Bring up Control Center.  Do that by swiping up on the home screen starting down just above the home button.
    Rotation lock is on the bottom row, the second icon from the left (just to the right of the flashlight).
    Click it to release it.
