</div>

having issues with ctrl+z not working, I have to manually select from menu.

doesn’t happen all the time, only when switching fields or trying to undo highlighting.

I only have anki-connect add-on installed.

can anyone else reproduce?

Due to changes in the way the editor is implemented, certain actions cannot currently be undone from the editor.
