Using Undo/Redo Overview in Ergonomics

You can undo or redo the Create Manikin and Standard Pose commands.

This task shows you how to:

For Standard Pose Command

You can use the Undo and Redo for standard pose commands.

  1. Click Undo/Redo Overview .

    Global Undo/Redo.

    • In this example, the command starts with an already selected segment of the manikin.

    • Selecting Undo stops the command. The Redo list (right side) would not fill with any possibilities, since no Undo or Redo action can lead to the start of a command.

    Local Undo /Redo (within the command):

    • For each of the actions done by you in the context of the command, an entry adds in the Undo side, if this action modifies the posture of the manikin. Change of values (3D or numerical handles).

    • Undo:

    • Redo

      Going back to the initial posture (corresponding to the posture of the manikin when changing tab) also inserts an entry in the Undo/ Redo side.

    • Undo:

    • For the Hand Posture tab only: The options that deal with the type of hand postures, and the choice of side, cause a change of posture. These options changes would trigger an event in the Undo/Redo side.
    • Changing the Hand Posture type or Hand Posture Side moves it to the Redo Side, and the Undo moves it back to the Undo side.

  2. End through the Close or the X on top of the panel that removes all the created entries while using Standard Pose.
    The option of the Constraints section does not have a direct impact on the posture. Therefore the selection within this section does not consider it as an Undo/Redo action. However its state registers with the saved postures in the Undo/Redo transactions.

Create and Place Manikin

You can use the Undo and Redo for creating and placing a Manikin.

Click Undo/Redo Overview .

Global Undo/Redo

  • In this example, the command starts with the creation of a manikin.

Local Undo /Redo ( change in position and modification of parameters):

  • For change of position, each time a position is changed, an entry is added in the Undo side.

  • Undo / Redo change of position: If the change of position is done by moving the robot, then an entry is made in the undo side.

  • Undo / Redo change of a parameter: for each change of a parameter (gender, population, percentile, posture), an entry is made in the undo side.

  • Each element of the Undo side can undo, and redo within the command.
