Undo Button

[schicos]

Is there an undo button?  Sometimes, multiple elements are selected, and rather than isolating those selected items, it would be convenient to just select "undo".

Hello,

Thanks for contacting Autodesk!

Currently, we do not have an undo function in Assemble. Please help me to understand your request correctly. Do you want to be able to repeat your last selection, or do you want to be able to undo hiding?

Thanks!

Undo Hiding would be a very nice thing to have. Also, if we are meticulously clicking through a bunch of objects trying to highlight certain ones, only to accidentally click on a blank space, everything disappears. it would be very helpful to have a "re-select" button in case of situations like this, that happen more often than one might think.

is there still no solution for this? I feel as though this should have been added awhile ago

@Anonymous Unfortunately there still is no solution for this... It would be a very nice feature to have. Lots of QOL feature enhancements/improvements have been suggested, but very little movement on Autodesk's end.

This would be a great feature especially when working on large complex models.

For complex models, this would be a very useful function to be able to go back at least a few steps in the selection. On complex models, when we make selections and provide the elements with parameters (so that we can color the model parts), if we accidentally "click next to it", we can start the selection of the given model group from the beginning. 😞

@fodora I completely understand the frustration at losing a large selection by accidentally mis-clicking on blank space. 
One thing I have found as a best practice: hold ctrl + Right click to mass-select and add elements to your selection. If you accidentally select an element you don't want in your current selection, you can hold the alt key + right click to mass-deselect. Even if you accidentally miss the element, because you are holding alt, you won't lose the rest of your selection. Learning that feature has saved me a lot of frustration on numerous occasions!

This is not a solution!
