In the process of doing Undo/Redo.
I looked at this more closely, and don't ever recall using Redo in anything that I have ever done. (vs.... Undo...all the time)
Just curious as to how many use the Redo function in any applications they use, and how they find it useful?
 
Well, I use a redo so that if users delete something, they can easily add it back. It acts as a security blanket so that changes can be undone and are not permanent.
 
If there are a lot of hot keys, redo is sometimes good because I might hit the hot key for undo on accident without wanting to know what I undid or what exactly I undid.
 
I use the "Redo" feature really a lot when working on pictures in GIMP.

So it is important in some applications.

Thanks to all who replied...I guess I have just not had the appropriate App for ideal use. Good to know how it's used.
 
I mainly use redo when I hit the undo when I shouldn't have... Though I use undo 75% of the time.
