Pro Tips for Undoing Changes in Figma

3. Use the Edit Menu
   Go to the top menu bar, click Edit, and select Undo from the dropdown. This is helpful if you prefer using menus over shortcuts.

   Click on the file name in the top toolbar, then select Version History → Show Version History. You’ll see a timeline of changes made to the file.

5. Restore a Previous Version
   In the Version History panel, click on a timestamped version to preview it. If needed, click Restore this version to revert the file to that point.

Common Pitfalls and How to Avoid Them

1. Undo Not Working in View-Only Mode
   Undo only works if you have edit access to the file. If you're in view-only mode, you won’t be able to undo anything.

2. Undoing Changes from Another User
   You can only undo your own actions in real time. To reverse others’ edits, restore an earlier version from the Version History.

3. Losing Track of What You Undid
   If unsure what you changed, use Version History to compare file states and identify what was removed or added.

4. Undo Shortcut Conflicts
   Some browser extensions or operating systems may override the default shortcut. If undo isn’t working, try the Edit menu instead.

5. No Autosave Control
   Figma auto-saves changes constantly. If you make a mistake and close the file, undo may not be available when you reopen it—use versioning for security.
