PB5.31 - Incorrect IDE Undo Operation (When Using Comments)

Post by c4s »

  1. Type ";and" in a new line (actually you can use any supported keyword or function name)
  2. Remove the semicolon so that the IDE will interpret "and" as a keyword
  3. Undo the removal using [Ctrl+Z] or the menu item
  4. Now you'll see that the "and" in ";And" is still capitalized, altough it wasn't before.
If any of you native English speakers have any suggestions for the above text, please let me know (via PM). Thanks!

I can confirm this behaviour for Linux (PB 4.50) and it's likely an older 'issue'

but I wouldn't regard it as a bug.

Especially as the capitalization had not been my action (any edit-change) which I could want to be made undone.

Like you posted Vera, this annoying "half undo feature" is not restricted to the Windows® version of the IDE.
More importantly, in addition to comments being changed, it also affects the source code's literal strings.

At a minimum, that IDE behavior should be considered an undo. ;)
Keep it BASIC.
