Undo text edit does not work on text
When double-clicking to edit text (for example in a Tree Pane), the Undo/Redo buttons don't undo any editing, instead they undo any changes to the shape layout.
It would be better if it actually worked on what was being edited.

Inappropriate?Dan, you're totally right. I should do two things:
- add undo/redo support for text editing (this is hard to do right, and that's why I haven't done it yet)
- disable the undo and redo buttons while in editing mode...in fact, I should disable all of the toolbar buttons while you edit
To "undo" your changes to the text, you can hit ESCape to get out of editing mode. Or you can submit them and then hit undo, which should put the previous text in there. Not useful for "mid-editing" changes, but better than nothing I hope.
I'll go add these to the TODO list right now, thanks for the feedback and sorry this has caused frustration. -
Inappropriate?Is it really that hard? To me "local" undo/redo while editing a text field seems to be a common feature in just about any application.
Is it a problem specific to Flex/Air? -
Hi Stephen, it's not that hard (though it's certainly not trivial). I just haven't gotten to it yet. I'll bump up the priority.
