Hi,
My eyes are getting old ...
I wish there was a shortcut or anyway to add 2 buttons to the IDE, which can take you to the Previous Edited Code & Last one, same as in many IDs.
Regards.

If I understood what you need:

A "workaround" can be dragging the tabs of the sources you edit to the (top) right, then you can click the preceding one, or use ctrl-shift-tab (see shortcuts in prefs)

Also you can open/close or just save, so you can use "open recent file" or double-click the 2nd most recently modified in explorer (see auto-save prefs…)

Better than many IDE, this exist in PB, this is the Session history



You can copy/paste many states of the same file in a file/compare tool.

PS.
What would be interesting would be to be able to directly compare the file in the IDE and one of those selected in the history by automatically sending both files to PB Tools > Compare Files/Folders.

Ooh he probably meant on the same file!

I just noticed the menu "File/View Changes"; there you can jump to differences with the saved file… I didn't find a way to jump to the right line number (directly from compare) to edit it…
…so I would also consider using markers (markers operations can have shortcuts and can be put as buttons on toolbar)
