The easiest way to perform a Redo on Mac is with a keyboard shortcut as well: Command + Shift + Z Pressing Command and Shift and Z together will “redo” the last undone action, thereby reverting the Undo behavior.

In the Add Shortcut text box, type the keyboard shortcut that you want to assign to the command and click the + button. The shortcut you type moves to the Assigned box. If the shortcut you chose is already assigned to another command, SketchUp asks whether you want to reassign the shortcut to the command you selected in Step 3. Is there a complete list of the Keyboard Shortcuts that a defined by Default? I looked on the Knowledge Center but did not find an official list from Sketchup team. The one I have is from various authors and is as follows: Select (Spacebar) Paint Bucket Rectangle Circle Move Rotate (Q) Scale Tape Measure Orbit Zoom Eraser Line Arc Push/Pull Offset Zoom Extends (Shift-Z) Before I go all crazy. The official keyboard shortcut for Undo is Alt+Backspace. However, Ctrl+Z (Microsoft Windows) or Command+Z (macOS), which is the Undo keyboard shortcut in many programs, also works. After you undo an action, you can redo it by selecting Edit Redo from the menu bar. The Eraser deletes selected geometry.
To create your own shortcuts, follow these steps:
- Select Edit > Preferences (Microsoft Windows) or LayOut > Preferences (Mac OS X). The LayOut Preferences dialog box appears.
- Select Shortcuts in the sidebar on the left.
- To find a specific command, type its name in the Filter box at the top of the dialog box or browse through the list in the main list box.
- In the list box, select the command to which you want to assign a keyboard shortcut.
- In the text box at below the list of commands, press the keyboard shortcut you want to assign to the command. For example, to assign Shift+B to the Arrange/Send to Back command, press Shift+B to make that shortcut appear in the text box. After you add your desired shortcut, on Mac OS X, the shortcut appears in the Key column of the list box, and you can skip to Step 7. On Microsoft Windows, go to Step 6. Caution: Do not hit enter as it will erase the value entered!Tip: On Microsoft Windows, you use Shift, Ctrl, and Alt as keyboard shortcut modifier keys. On Mac OS X, you can use Shift, Control, and Option keys as modifiers.
- Click the + button to assign the keyboard shortcut. The shortcut appears in the Shortcuts column of the list box.
- You can repeat Steps 3–6 to keep assigning keyboard shortcuts, or click Close if you’re done.
To remove an assigned keyboard shortcut, select it in the list box and click the - key (Microsoft Windows) or delete the shortcut from the text box (Mac OS X).
