[AP] Repeat Last Transformation?

[Richard S.]

Hi,

Is there some kind of option somewhere which will repeat the last transformation I performed?

 

It's a real pain having to manually go through the whole process multiple times :(

If I set the rotation angle of an object in the transform palette to 45 degrees, and then press enter to commit the transformation - I cannot even repeat this manually, because when I retype the same angle again and press enter again - nothing at all happens???

 

Thank you all in advance.

If you duplicate an object, transform it (i.e. move, rotate and/or resize it) and then press Cmd+J on a Mac or Ctrl+J on Windows to duplicate it again, the same transformations will be applied to each subsequent copy.

Hi DesignMeister,

Check this video tutorial about Power Duplicate.

Thanks, but that still does not do what I meant :(

 

For example:

 

Create a shape, then rotate it 45 degree.

Then create a totally different shape, and try to perform the exact same transformation on that new shape (without going through the whole transformation process again).

 

Would be good if there was a "Repeat Last Transformation" menu option.

 

Hope that made more sense :)

No, there's no command to repeat the last action. I'm moving this thread to the Feature Requests section.

If you type 45 into the box when it already shows 45 degrees, then you're simply setting it to the existing value all over again. In order to increase the amount of rotation by 45 degrees, you need to type +=45 (or *=2 to double the current value).

Thanks Alfred.

Does anyone know when this will be available??
