Undo or CTRL+Z stop working sporadically

(2) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 322

Like it says in the title, the undo icon or CTRL+Z stop working mid-development for no reason, which in terms creates a great deal of hardship in case of accidental movement of selected element within a group, or reverting an important deletion.

The rest of the app is working, it's saving and publishing.

The browser is Edge Chromium.

    Hi @vladimir84 ,

     

    So this issue is only specific to Edge Chromium or is it affecting any other browsers?


    What is the current workaround you are applying? (changing browser, refreshing page).

     

    Regards,

    Ricardo

    Hi @rimatos ,

    Honestly, it "feels" more comfortable working in Edge Chromium, and I did not try in others.

    The workaround is to:

    - first notice it at the most inopportune moment (deleting a detailed gallery by mistake, or resizing the whole group instead of the background rectangle);

    - save, publish, close the tab

    - history clear cache only

    - re-open 

     

    The version of the PowerApps editor is 3.20071.24, if that helps, but this was happening for a while.

    Thank you for the information @vladimir84 !

    Unfortunately I was not able to reproduce the issue, but I can see that there are more users being affected by this in the forum: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Power-Apps/Undo-not-working-3-20051-17/td-p/583259/page/2

     

    From here it appears that the workaround you are currently applying is the only one available at the moment.

     

    I would recommend opening a ticket to MS Support through https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com/support, in order to be able to further investigate this issue on our end.

     

    Hope this helps!

    That's gonna be tricky, but I'll try it when I have more time.

    Let's keep the topic open in the meantime, for the actual solution to be posted.

    Br,

    Two years have passed and I still found the same problem with the undo button. I accidentally deleted one component and lost 4 hours of work because there was no way to undo it! I also worked on Edge, so it seems the issue is still there...

    Has there been any update from Microsoft on this? it is incredibly frustrating and leads to large amounts of work being lost as you just have to ditch your changes and start again
