Undo and History Comparisons


The History window is a unique and powerful feature for comparing settings in Trash. To access the History list, click on the History button.

 

As you tweak controls, each movement is captured and displayed in the History list. To go back and hear a previous setting, simply click on the list at the point you want to audition. The changes that you've undone will show up in a lighter color. In the screenshot below, all changes after the mix was set to 89.9% are undone.

If you close the History window, processing resumes from the point you had last selected, so you can continue building on the History list from a earlier point.

While using Trash, you can press Ctrl+Z to undo every edit you've made, and Ctrl+Y to redo edits. See Shortcut Keys and Mouse Support for more keyboard shortcuts.

You can assign up to four points in the History list to A, B, C and D buttons. To do this, select the point in the list you want to capture, and click on the "Set" button below the A, B, C or D button. Clicking on the appropriate button will then recall the setting assigned to that button.

The history list has a depth setting which controls how many edits it remembers. You can change this setting in the General Options tab. You can also press the Clear button to clear the history list at any time.

When you exit Trash, the History list and any settings assigned to the A, B, C or D buttons will be saved to the file iZTrash.hst in the directory where you installed Trash. The next time you start Trash, the list will be remembered so you can pick up right where you left off.
