Flight4, latest Evolution Update 2.5.92:

There is NO undo function in the Evolution Memo component. This is VERY
annoying!

Imagine someone writes a big memo. Now he/she wants to copy and paste it
into Gedit. He/she marks everything with "CTRL-A" and instead of
"CTRL-C" just accidently presses "C"... Oh, oh...

Sorry, but we're in year 2006 and this simple memo editor has no undo...
I think it's better to DROP the whole Memo component if there is NO undo
function!
Comment 1 André Klapper 2006-03-03 18:00:54 UTC 
confirming.
Comment 2 Srinivasa Ragavan 2006-04-26 07:11:12 UTC 
Some work is progressing towards adding html support to cal/tasks/memo. Once that is complete, it will have undo feature across above editors.
Comment 3 André Klapper 2006-08-23 10:42:13 UTC 
still in 2.7.92.
Comment 4 Milan Crha 2007-07-13 14:48:38 UTC 
What about try to change the description component in edit dialog to the same as is in New Mail? You know, with all that HTML formatting and so on.
Comment 5 Srinivasa Ragavan 2007-07-13 19:51:37 UTC 
Milan, we had some patch on that from a intern, but that wasn;t compatible with any of the servers. Chen, any idea on the whereabouts of the patch?
Comment 6 Chenthill P 2007-07-16 04:42:26 UTC 
Nope. I do not have it.
Comment 7 Matthew Barnes 2008-03-11 00:26:52 UTC 
Bumping version to a stable release.
Comment 8 Nick Jenkins 2010-03-22 22:16:15 UTC 
Is this a dupe of bug 413618 ? (which covers memos, tasks, appointments - all of which need undo)
Comment 9 Milan Crha 2013-11-28 08:43:55 UTC 
*** Bug 413618 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 10 Milan Crha 2013-11-28 08:45:45 UTC 
Let's make this general for component editors, which includes Appointments, Meetings, Memos and Tasks editors (those extra windows with Summary, Description and so on widgets.
Comment 11 Milan Crha 2014-01-10 16:19:55 UTC 
Created commit 63a1f0e in evo master (3.11.4+)
Comment 12 Nick Jenkins 2014-01-13 00:32:13 UTC 
Woohoo, awesome! A good one to mention in the Evo 3.12 release announcement.
