Undo function not working in Visio 2010

Question

The Undo icon is perminantly grayed out in Visio 2010. I can't use ALT backspace or Control Z to undo either. Cut and paste do work, but no other clip board functions. It may be related a particular file, as it seems to behave the same on different computers. If I start a new blank file, undo does work. So the behavior must be associated with the file. What ever it is I can't find the "fix".

Answer 1

I had this same problem and found when I went to exit Visio it said that I had a large amount of data in the clipboard (because I had just created a multiple tabbed document with pastes from multiple individual files).  So once I agreed to clear the memory and then logged back into my Visio file, my undo functionality started functioning as normal.   So in my instance a simple restart fixed it... hopefully you resolved your problem in a similar manner as I would hope anyone reading this thread could try the same.

Answer 2

Unfortunately that isn't helpful when you're trying to undo something and a chart has rearranged itself and the undo arrow is greyed out. Very frustrating
