How do you undo in Pixelorama?

Published in Pixelorama Editing 2 mins read

To undo an action in Pixelorama, you can press Ctrl+Z (or Cmd+Z on macOS).

Pixelorama, like most pixel art editors, supports undo functionality to revert changes you've made to your artwork. This is a crucial feature for experimentation and correcting mistakes.

Here's a breakdown of how undo and redo work in Pixelorama:

  • Undo: Pressing Ctrl+Z (Cmd+Z) will revert your most recent action. You can continue pressing this key combination to undo multiple actions sequentially, stepping back through your editing history.
  • Redo: If you've undone too far, you can redo actions by pressing Ctrl+Y (or Cmd+Shift+Z on macOS). This will reapply the actions you previously undid.
  • Transformation Cancellation: When performing a transformation (like scaling or rotating), you can press the Escape key to cancel the transformation altogether. Alternatively, you can use the Undo function (Ctrl+Z) to revert the changes. Note that canceling a transformation this way prevents you from redoing it.

Important Considerations:

  • Pixelorama has a limited undo/redo history. Once you reach the limit of stored actions, older changes will be permanently overwritten. The number of undo steps available might be configurable in the program's settings.
  • Some actions might not be undoable. Be mindful of this, especially when performing operations that significantly alter your project.
