Undo - Redo Models

Redo Models

Redo reverts the effects of the undo action. The simplest form of redo is flip-undo, in which using undo after undoing redoes the undone action. In this case, the program flips back and forth between two states when the undo button is pressed.

In a more typical redo model, there are separate undo and redo buttons. The redo can be used for each undo action performed. Making a new edit usually clears the redo list. If a branching redo model is used, the new edit branches the action history.

Famous quotes containing the word models:

    Grandparents can be role models about areas that may not be significant to young children directly but that can teach them about patience and courage when we are ill, or handicapped by problems of aging. Our attitudes toward retirement, marriage, recreation, even our feelings about death and dying may make much more of an impression than we realize.
    Eda Le Shan (20th century)
