Abstract: Systems and methods for undo mechanism are provided. Computer systems can have many different software elements, including application elements and file management elements. System elements can be used for user input, providing output, and manipulating data or files. In the course of using a computer system, the user may wish to return to a previous system state by undoing one or more events. In one aspect, an undo operation can be performed across multiple elements in the system (e.g., cross-application undo functionality). In another aspect, past information displayed on a display can be “recorded” so that it can later be rewound as part of a media player metaphor, and events associated with the rewound/displayed information can be undone. The media player and rewind metaphors assist users in recalling past events and/or finding actions to undo.

Abstract translation: 提供撤销机制的系统和方法。 计算机系统可以具有许多不同的软件元素，包括应用元素和文件管理元素。 系统元素可用于用户输入，提供输出和操纵数据或文件。 在使用计算机系统的过程中，用户可能希望通过撤销一个或多个事件来返回到先前的系统状态。 在一个方面，可以跨系统中的多个元件执行撤消操作（例如，跨应用程序撤消功能）。 在另一方面，显示器上显示的过去信息可被“记录”，以便随后可以作为媒体播放器比喻的一部分进行倒带，并且与倒退/显示信息相关联的事件可以被撤消。 媒体播放器和倒带隐喻帮助用户回忆过去的事件和/或发现撤消的动作。
