> Hello, I am using this plugin and i have a problem: i cannot undo a button click. eg. i click the right align button, and i get [right]Text[/right] in my post. i would expect that ctrl+z-ing would make that text disappear. (right now the solution is to manually delete the text)

I think there’s a problem with undoing in the topic creator: after i click a button (eg. insert buleted list, bold, italic, etc.) i cannot undo that with a “ctrl+z”

> There are zero plans to revisit this. Closing this topic because bikeshedding. The native browser form input element behavior is what you get – if you don’t like that, take it up with your friendly neighborhood browser vendor.
