Redo/Undo with Descriptions

Whenever I use the CTRL+Z to undo or redo certain actions, there are times when I am not entirely sure what has changed compared to before.

Therefore I would argue showing a small description in each notification that tells you what has been changed specifically.

Something like: "Undo Adjusting the label of a button X" or "Redo Updating the database query event handler".

I think you already have this data in the changelog, so it's really a displaying task from that point on.

:wave: Thanks for taking this into consideration.

To further add to this conversation it feels like an inconsistent behaviour depending on what you last clicked/focused undo may not remove the component but undo a code change.

What then tends to happen people undo multiple times and then few changes are reverted so you're found tracking back your work in order to make sure everything looks as it should.

Hi @emozio and @stefancvrkotic,

This is excellent feedback, thank you!

We have an existing report on the unexpected side effects when using Cmd + Z. I added the request to notify the user of what was removed/added with an undo/redo and will update you here with any news.
