Adds undo/redo to the default editor's context menu (1.58 KB, patch)

Description Pedro Villavicencio 2008-11-25 13:40:24 UTC 
this report has been filed here:

https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tomboy/+bug/301873

"Although it is possible to undo an action in Tomboy with the shortcut command 'cntl z' and redo an action with 'cntl+shift z', it would be convenient to include this function in the right-click menu when editing a note. Many computer users expect this sort of functionality to be readily available without having memorized a bunch of shortcut commands.

To Reproduce:
- Open a new note in Tomboy. Start typing something in the note, then delete it.
- Right click on the note

Expected Result:
- The right-click menu should have 'undo' command to restore what you deleted

Actual Result:
- The right-click menu doesn't have commands such as 'undo' or 'redo'"

Thanks,

Adds undo/redo to the default editor's context menu

Rather simple again, not sure if that is the best way to do it. Adds the requested menu items though (and I admit that they might make sense if we don't expose buttons to do the same directly).

You can do this with Right-click -> Text -> Undo/Redo.

Closing as WONTFIX.  Feel free to re-open if there's some obvious HIG violation going on here.
