When I type into a QPlainTextEdit window and then type CTRL+Z to undo the undo works fine. But then when I type CTRL+Y to redo the undo nothing happens. What am I missing that redo does not work?
Here is my test code:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
# Redo (CTRL+Y) does not restore text after Undo (CTRL+Z)
import sys
from PySide6.QtWidgets import QApplication, QMainWindow, QPlainTextEdit
from PySide6.QtCore import QSize
class ExampleWindow(QMainWindow):
def __init__(self):
QMainWindow.__init__(self)
self.b.insertPlainText("example text 1\nexample text 2\nexample text 3")
self.b.resize(440,240)
if __name__ == "__main__":
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
w = QMainWindow()
w.setMinimumSize(QSize(440, 240))
w.setWindowTitle("QPlainTextEdit undo/redo example")
edit = QPlainTextEdit(w)
edit.insertPlainText("example line 1\nexample line 2\nexample line 3")
edit.resize(440,240)
print("undoRedoEnabled: ", edit.isUndoRedoEnabled())
w.show()
sys.exit( app.exec() )
The correct keystroke for the OS must be used.
