Setting the maximum number of recorded sketching operations

Abaqus/CAE records your changes to the current sketch in a cache that enables you to undo and redo several consecutive sketching changes. By default, the undo cache supports up to 10 levels of undo, but you can increase or decrease this number. You might want to increase the number of levels if your sketching operations require large-scale changes, and you might want to decrease this number to improve system performance for large, complex sketches.
