    Description

      Written text within the Atto text editor will be deleted when using a combination of Ctrl-z and Ctrl-y. We found this bug adding a topic to the news forum.

       

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Type text in a text box

      2. Press Ctrl-z to undo

      3. Then press Ctrl-y repeatedly past the point where the last action is redone.

      4. All text in the text box is deleted

      5. Pressing Ctrl-z to undo does not bring back the text as expected
