It is recommended, on the first access to the Pages main tab in Fred4, to increment the number of available undos.

The default value: 50, which might be insufficient to undo all changes.

The recommended value: about 200 or more. If it often happens that you cannot undo all changes, increment this number further.

The available undo actions are discarded when you close a page, or when you exit the program.

To increment the number of undos on page

1.On the Edit menu of the Pages main tab while not editing text, click Preferences.

2.On the Main tab, on Number of undo levels, enter the value you want.

Note

The maximum number of undos has no upper limit (except the available memory).

For undo when editing text on page, see Increment the number of undos in text.

About saving preferences in database

When you click OK, the preferences are updated in the memory and applied right-on. GN4 will store the preference in the database when you exit application. Anyway, should your GN4 crash or exit in any other abnormal way, the preference will not be stored in database, and you will have to repeat the previously described steps.

This preference is stored in the Editorial_SystemUserConfig for the securityRef corresponding to the user name. To display that configuration, open EdAdmin4, click Client Applications, expand the search pane in the left sidebar, in the Name enter editorial, and in the securityRef select the name of the user. Double-click the Editorial_SystemUserConfig to open the content. Locate the preference by name.
