Feature Request: An UNDO button
« on: May 23, 2013, 02:07:13 pm »

I was doing some heavy editing (adding Series names and Season-Episode info) and I somehow highlighted too many records and next thing I know all the data is gone. I couldn't remember how to "undo" the change and nothing obvious was coming up (right clicking for menu, etc.). Maybe I missed the obvious in my panic - but I thought how nice it would be to have a big "UNDO" button on the screen or in a menu.
I eventually remembered that CNTRL-Z was the combo I needed.  :)

If you right-click the menu bar at the top, you can select Customize Toolbar… which will allow you to add an undo button:



The Undo function is also listed in the Edit menu.

CTRL-Z is the standard Undo keyboard shortcut for Windows (and Command-Z is the same on OSX).  It works in essentially every application that supports Undo (and has a rationally designed UI).

I know we're straying into off-topic territory here, but while undo is standardized, I hate it when an application uses Ctrl+Y rather than Ctrl+Shift+Z for Redo.
