Hi Pedro, many thanks for the clarifications, now is clear that undo is not available.
I take Kicad as is, since it is wonderful, and still many thanks to the developers that spend their time for us. I have started to use it two weeks ago, to replace eagle, and i have quite ready a complex circuit 4 layer circiut. I am bvery happy until now, help is clear, and the interface is really intuitive. greetings, angelo --- In [email protected], Pedro Martin <pki...@...> wrote: > > Hi Angelo, > > Pcbnew has not an undo function.
