Undo - No undo after bulk replace 1.9.10

BKSteve · 07-02-2022, 01:49 AM

The ability to undo a bulk replace doesn't seem to work in 1.9.10 for Windows x64.

PS. The new icons take some remembering which is which but the popups help.

Replace All has never had an "undo" capability in Sigil as it is done at the file level outside of any editor widget. That is why we added the "Checkpoints" capability to Sigil.

New in Sigil 1.9.10 is the ability to do a "Dry Run" ReplaceAll to allow you to see what will be changed before doing a ReplaceAll, and a new "Replacement Chooser" which allows you to remove unwanted matches from a ReplaceAll before committing them.

And for all else there is MasterCard A BACKUP (save-as...)
Because when I screw up... Oh Boy!

Recoverable cloud storage (like Dropbox with recovery/rollback) is your FRIEND.
