[Done] Ctrl+Shift+Z should redo

Feature Requests
1

Pressing Ctrl+Shift+Z after pressing Ctrl+Z should redo what was undone.

My hands keep going for that Ctrl+Shift+Z, but nothing happens.

I have the feeling that this is a regression. I haven’t used much the Anvil editor recently, so my hands may have been spoiled by other tools that I’ve been using, but I have the strong feeling that it used to work.

If it’s a regression, please consider this a bug report.

If it has never worked, please consider this a feature request.

EDIT
I just noticed that (in Chrome) right clicking on the editor, shows a context menu with the undo option available and the redo option disabled. It looks like the undo is managed by Chrome, not by Anvil and it looks like Anvil does something to the editor after each undo that causes the redo to be disabled.

You can use Ctrl+Y to redo like on windows.

Yes, Ctrl+Y works!
For some reasons my hands instinctively go for Ctrl+Y in Excel and for Ctrl+Shift+Z on a text editor and everything else.
Thanks, now I need to teach it to my hands.

I would say more on Office than on Windows :slight_smile:. And even on Office, you can redo an action in an Excel sheet with Ctrl+Y, but if you undo a file name typed on the very same Excel’s file selection box, you can redo it with Ctrl+Shift+Z, not with Ctrl+Y. The file selection box is Windows and uses Ctrl+Shift+Z, while Excel is Office and uses Ctrl+Y.

Depends too on your system language. German or polish systems work with ctrl+z (strg+z)
