Undoing all edits
Choosing Undo All from the Edit menu undoes all project edits and automatically adds them to the redo
history.
Using redo
To redo an edit, click the Redo button ( ) on the toolbar or press . Edits are re-performed in
the reverse order they were undone.
Tip:
You can also redo the most recent undone edit by
choosing Redo from the Edit menu.
Redoing a series of edits
Clicking the down arrow next to the Redo button ( ) displays the project’s redo history. The history
displays as a drop-down list with the most recently undone edit located at the top. Redoing an edit in the list
requires all subsequently undone edits to be re-performed as well.
1.
Click the arrow to the right of the Redo button ( ). The redo history appears.
2.
Locate the edit to be redone. Notice that all subsequently undone edits are automatically selected and the
total number of edits to be redone is indicated at the bottom of the drop-down list.
3.
Click the edit to be redone. The project is restored to the state it was in prior to the selected undone edit.
Tip:
Clicking the desktop outside the drop-down list cancels
the redo operation.
Clearing the undo history
ACID allows you to clear the undo and redo histories without closing the project or exiting the application.
After the histories are cleared, ACID creates new ones as you continue building the project.
1.
From the Edit menu, choose Clear Undo History. A confirmation dialog appears, alerting you that this
action permanently deletes the current edit histories.
2.
Click Ye s to clear the edit histories or No to retain the current edit histories.
Playing the project
ACID provides several methods of playing your projects.
Using the transport bar
All buttons required to play your project are located on ACID’s transport bar. The transport bar should look
somewhat familiar to you, as it contains buttons found on most home CD and cassette players. For more
information, see Transport bar on page 17.
