Feature: Undo/Redo buttons

[mifot]

It would be nice to have "undo" button e.g. next to "Apply". It could simplify work a lot! Now once I apply some tool to my text and want to use the second tool I have to reopen the original text. Also, some two section window (one for input, one for output) might be a solution or the next interesting feature.

Text Pieces supports common hotkeys for Undo/Redo. You can use Ctrl+Z for undo and Ctrl+Shift+Z/Ctrl+Y for redo. It works with both manual editing and tool applying.

However, I'll add undo and redo buttons for better accessability. Thank you for your report!

yes, I noticed hotkeys. Thanks in advance for a new buttons. It will be a nice feature.

No GNOME app has undo/redo buttons – not even Text Editor.
Undo/redo is already documented in the shortcut window.

I've had this problem as well. I agree it warrants a UI solution.

I think the input/output panels is a good idea and would fit nicely with #70 . It may be difficult to integrate with current flow, perhaps as a separate mode.

Another one would be to expose the history of transformation – maybe in a sidebar.

Something like

---
0. Original
---
1. JSON to YAML
---
2. Base 64 Encode

No undo/redo button are planned. You can use hotkeys or context menu
