The active icon in the Command Stepper shelf is displayed with a bright green inner ring and a red outer ring:
Tip: You can also use hotkeys or marking menus to step backward through the commands in the Command Stepper. To learn how to set up hotkeys, see Preferences > Edit Menus/Hotkeys. To learn how to define a marking menu, see Preferences > Edit marking menus.

Notes

  • If you select another tool or menu command from outside the Command Stepper, the ring around the last used Command Stepper item changes to a thick green ring. This is to remind you where you left off in your sequence of commands.
  • If the last tool in the sequence is active, the next Step backward command moves you back to the previous tool in the sequence. See the following example.
