Undo History : undo action

Post by meteorquake »

When you do an action that produces a bunch of entries on the undo, to undo it you have to manually choose all those entries, which could even be 1000.
It may be helpful if items record a hidden unique action counter so that you could right-click an item and "Select all items in the action", "Undo all items in the action" to select or undo an action's impact, for example it would select all the items that were part of a move action.
Perhaps it could show visually that an item was part of an action that resulted in more than one file action for undoing, or show the concepts as extra button(s) at the side e.g. "Undo Entire Action" / "Select Entire Action".

Undo History will show each individual action so you can undo a single one.

Edit -> Undo will undo the whole group.

I have put on my TODO list to undo groups within Undo History.

Thank you for the suggestion.
