XSI problem (Can't Undo,No Menus)

Well this is a really weird problem. It seems to have started right when I started using S to dolly the camera for viewing stuff.

All of menus like the Dice poly's menu or the Mirror objects menu that lets you control the options of each action don't show up when clicked. It just does the action without letting me adjust it!!! And to top it off there is no more undo button? Edit>undo isn't clickable and crtl+z does nothing.

It's very annoying. Anyone know whats happening? :?

therye the property menus and you probably turned them off by accident, look somewhere in preferences to try to turn them back on again, as for ctl+Z, thats a universal action that works on all programs but it can be changed in windows keymapping but i dont know how you coulda changed it without knowing cause the only way to open the menu for it is to hold down a hotkey like that for a period of time and the window opens.

haha - I had this same problem before.

you've just somehow (dunno how with me n'either) made the Undo 'avalable' for 0 times. the max limit of Undo's is 200 :)

go to:
File>Preferences
there's a bar and a 'slider' called "Number of Undo Levels" I'd bet it's set to 0 :P set it to 50 or something :wink: and there's magic in the air :D

Thanks Qdin! It was set to 0 lol. I guess I hit something for the menus to but I can't find the preference yet.

*continues looking*

Same here :P

I was starting to getting pi***d when I decided to start looking in everything to see the reason I couldn't use the Undo anymore :roll:

that was the first time I was in there, but it must've done something. Anyways! :P I'm glad my problems could help - lol
