Hi

Thank you for these comments. Yes, I hit this wrong button without thinking twice (even once).

I use it so few that I had forgotten its dangerousness. I should indeed have looked for the menu entry "Undo". The problem is that it is translated in French by "Restaurer" . It is a very imprecise translation which obviouly does not help. Restaurer une maison means building a house anew. "Retour" would probably be more understandable. Also, the fact that it's dimmed every time you open a book does not help because you cannot see when it becomes active.

If I could customize my GUI, I would gladly make them switch their place for frequency of use reasons:
- I would use the chevron (see arrow in the screenshot) to Undo
- I would use only a menu entry for coming back to the beginning of the session (which is an extraordinary step).
It would be much less dangerous for brain dead people. I know there are some of them...

I'll have to learn (and remember) Ctrl Z.
