[RWP] Undo

[TheOreoMonster]

i do believe under general in preferences you can change to some extent what undo will let u undo. Also may be useful in under project in preferences you can set whether or not undo history is saved with the project which can be useful as well.

I saw a track envelope item go bye, as I did control+z over and over, but I also saw lots of alt+upArrows, tons and tons of them, and I thought I had to undo all those two.  But, I now suspect that those were just getting recorded  in addition to the change that was actually recorded in the track.  And, all I really needed to undo was the track envelope event.
