Description Chema Celorio 2001-04-18 16:25:04 UTC 
1. B2=1, C2=2, D2=3, E2=4
2. Select "D" and hide it, E is now selected
3. If i undo, E is selected when i would rather have D selected

I think that overall the undo stack should always save the selection.
There are other instances where the selection is not preserved in an
undo state. Could we add this code to the undo/redo functions so that
it is always done ?
Comment 1 Jody Goldberg 2001-04-19 01:55:16 UTC 
I'm not sure I agree with the notion of moving the selection around 
when undoing.
Comment 2 Andreas J. Guelzow 2004-11-13 06:45:50 UTC 
The selection is workbook view specific. We may be undoing an action that was
performed in another view and so never changed the current view's selection.
Comment 3 Andreas J. Guelzow 2006-07-16 06:10:28 UTC 
There does not seem much support for the idea of changing the selection on undo. (Possibly since changing a selection itself is not undoable.)
