Fusion/Color undo should be part of Edit undo history

PostMon Sep 27, 2021 7:48 am

Obviously undo works in the Fusion and Color pages, but it seems like it doesn't communicate with the Edit page's undo history. Having an undo history that you can look at is helpful for many reasons, but it throws me off when I try to use it in the Color and Fusion tabs (after being used to using it in the Edit page) and all I see are my changes from the edit page, which are already very old news relative to whatever I've already forgotten I've done since moving to Color/Fusion.

Fortunately the most important feature already exists, which is that you can't undo changes made on the previous page before you opened Color/Fusion. That said, I think it would be great if the Color and Fusion pages had their own undo histories, and it would really awesome if the action of moving to that page was also registered as an action in their undo stack. For example, in the Edit page, "original" is listed as the first history entry after you open a project, so you can be sure about which point in the history represents zero changes. Similarly, it would be great if the Color/Fusion pages had their own undo history, which started with something like "Edit>Fusion" to indicate the beginning of the changes made since navigating to that page. Maybe it could even keep track of even earlier changes, so you could continue to undo changes made from an earlier time that you had worked in that page.

That would be a very nice feature, indeed! I also like TCP786’s idea of having »Edit>Fusion« as the start of the Fusion-History or »Fusion>Color» (or »Edit>Color«) as the start of the Color-History. Or, why not have them all in the same History with transition points between the pages highlighted?
I am surprised that this feature is not much more asked for!
Greetings!
