undo bug

[user]

hello

I dont know if this is a bug, or a lack of a basic feature

emeditor doesnt remember selections/highlighted-text in its undo function

eg, lets say you select some words, then you click delete (you delete them all at once)
if you click ctrl+z/undo it will restore the deleted words, but it wont restore the highlighting, the words wont be selected

undo works like this (it restores selection) in almost all applications, MS Word, notepad, opera browser, etc, thats why I considered it a bug

thanks

I don’t consider the selection undo issue is a bug. It is just how EmEditor is designed. If EmEditor needs to restore selections, it will need more memory space to save that information. If that is all right, however, I might consider it in future versions.

hello

sorry for late reply

the way it works in opera and probably other applications is:

eg, lets say you select some words, then you click delete (you delete them all at once)
if you click ctrl+z/undo it will restore the deleted words, but it wont restore the highlighting, the words wont be selected/highlighted, but the cursor will be at the end of the previous selection
