hello,  
I make this feature request in the follow up of different UI improvements.

**proposal:** Currently there is a undo/redo on the renderviewer for the camera. it would be great if instead of being only camera, it would undo/redo every modification on the renderviewer. such as hide/show a object of the pipeline, and ideally (i think this would be more complex to do) things like changing opacity/colorBy, representation (surface/surface with edges/etc).

I do not agree, there is already an Undo/Redo for all properties (of views, representations and filters).

I agree with @mwestphal . I like the current undo/redo of camera, and undo/redo of everything else being separate.

Not sure as this will lead to too much `undo/redo` features…
