Description AaronPeterson 2019-10-21 21:42:34 UTC
I did a lot of careful cutting and pasting and hit undo and was bopped out of the object and got the text area object before any edits...  I was very unhappy I  had to go find the content again. and change fonts and it took less time to write the bug report than to redo my work... so I figured it counts as a normal severity bug.

I was trying to increase the indent of a bulleted item, it incorrectly did the indent of everything, I hit undo, it borked me... 
(text area object in draw, it may happen in other applicaitons)

Can not reproduce on Windows 10 Ent 64-bit en-US with
Version: 6.3.2.2 (x64)
Build ID: 98b30e735bda24bc04ab42594c85f7fd8be07b9c
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: GL; VCL: win; 
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

With a new Draw document
Draw Text box created to canvas
write multiple lines of text
assign a bullet selection to each
position cursor to end bullet, and indent, appears on the 'Undo' button list box

undo--> indent is backed out, appears on the 'Redo' button's list box

I did notice the list box of the split 'Undo' button is a little twitchy--its selection on 'mouse over' seems a bit too quick to select and inadvertently apply multiple undo actions.

Was that possibly the issue?

Even so, the multiple Undo's do show up on the Redo list box.
