Undo doesn't work in Notebook Cell

[rebornix]

Originally reported in microsoft/vscode#130142. Undo doesn't work in notebook.

Just a note but there was a recent change in 1.59.0 that may be related:

From the release notes for Notebook layout improvements:

The default value of notebook.undoRedoPerCell is now changed to true.

Any updates on this issue?

Using version 1.21.8, I still encounter this issue. Any updates?

FWIW, . (repeat last command) also doesn't work within notebook cells. Presumably the same underlying issue.

Does anyone have a workaround for this in the meantime?

[edemaine]

The classic undo (Ctrl-Z on Windows) works, so that's what I use as a workaround in notebooks. But it doesn't always interact well with Vim commands.

[aromatt]

Thanks, @edemaine - that's what I'm doing for now too. I spent a few minutes trying to adjust configs so that the u vim binding works. Maybe it's easy, but I don't know enough about VS Code or these extensions.

I'm also interested in a solution / workaround. @aromatt did you find a fix yet?

[aromatt]

@yannickdaniel sorry to say I did not.

@J-Fields any details on when a new release will be cut or how to produce one locally to test out your fix? Thanks!
