Undo (⌘Z) and Redo (⌘⇧Z) now cover restoring a previous version and duplicating or deleting a section from the outline sidebar, not just typing — before, once you confirmed a restore from Version History, or deleted or duplicated a section, that was final; now ⌘Z undoes it like anything else you did, and steps back through everything — typing included — in the exact order you did it. For example: type a sentence, restore an earlier version, then type another sentence; ⌘Z removes the second sentence, ⌘Z again reverts the restore, and a third ⌘Z removes the first sentence, with ⌘⇧Z replaying all three back in order. If there's genuinely nothing left to undo, you'll now hear a short beep instead of nothing happening.
Duplicate and Delete are new options when you right-click a section in the outline sidebar — Delete removes the section and everything nested under it; Duplicate makes a copy right after it, with "copy" added to the heading. Both can be undone.
Dragging a section to reorder it in the outline sidebar can now be undone and redone too, just like typing — before, dragging a section into a new position made any earlier restore, delete, or duplicate on that document permanently un-undoable, even though your regular typing undo kept working fine. This matters most right after restoring a section from Version History, since a restore often lands the section in the wrong spot and dragging it into place is really the second half of that one action; that combined restore-then-reorder sequence can now be undone as two separate steps, in the right order, including while zoomed into a section. One narrow, deliberate quirk of this and the changes above: if you type something and then delete it back to exactly how the document read right after a restore, delete, duplicate, or reorder, ⌘Z can undo that action one step sooner than you'd count keystrokes for, because nothing is left on screen to tell it otherwise — nothing is ever lost or corrupted, it just happens slightly earlier than expected in this one specific case.
Undo now steps back through automatic corrections instead of skipping them — when the app automatically fixes something right where you were just typing (in the formatted editor, an automatic heading-level fix; in the source editor, any automatic correction landing on your last edit), ⌘Z now undoes that fix first, then undoes your typing, instead of jumping straight past it as if it never happened.
Fixed
Right-clicking a section's word count to set writing goals stopped working — it was being swallowed by the new right-click Duplicate/Delete Section menu (above), the same way right-clicking the status label already worked around it. Word count now has its own right-click again, side by side with the section menu. Hovering over either the status label or the word count now shows a subtle highlight, making clear those two spots do something different than the rest of the card.
Undoing a restore could silently stop working if you reordered the restored section right afterward — restoring a section from Version History and then dragging it into place could make the restore itself permanently un-undoable, even though it still appeared available in the Undo menu. Undo now correctly reverts the restore in this situation.
Undo and Redo could stop working entirely after using Find — closing the Find bar never returned keyboard focus to the document, so every ⌘Z and ⌘⇧Z after that silently did nothing — not just for the search, but for everything from that point on — until you clicked directly into the document again. Closing Find now hands focus back to the editor automatically.
⌘Z no longer goes dead right after switching between the formatted and plain-text editor views — two separate bugs, both fixed. Switching modes using the keyboard shortcut alone (with no click) never handed keyboard focus to the newly shown editor, so Undo did nothing until you clicked into the document; and even with focus correctly restored, typing immediately after switching modes could have that typing's own undo history silently destroyed by a background correction running at the same time. Both are fixed, in both directions and both ways of switching (⌘/ and the status-bar mode label).
Deleting a section could leave an invisible leftover copy of it behind in the app's records — the section disappeared from the outline as expected, but the underlying record was never actually removed, quietly accumulating forever. Deleting a section now fully removes it.
Duplicating a section could silently create a second, permanent extra copy alongside the one you asked for — with no way to see or remove it. Duplicating a section now creates exactly the one copy you see.
The very first citation you add to a brand-new document could be miscounted in the outline sidebar as a regular section instead of recognized as the bibliography — fixed.
In the plain-text editor, ⌘⇧K could silently delete the current line instead of inserting a citation — a keyboard-shortcut collision meant the two features were fighting over the same shortcut. Inserting a citation with ⌘⇧K no longer deletes anything.
