How to undo a text deletion ?

[CinéphOli]

Hello,

Silly basic question: is there a way to undo a partial deletion in the text fields ? For instance, I edit heavily the cast lists and sometimes I delete too much by mistake. I would like then to undo my last typing, but it doesn't work with ctrl-z or ctrl-y or ctrl-u.

Dont hit the save button but close the window by clicking the red x instead. In that case nothing gets saved and you are back where you started.
I know this doesnt help you if you edited your list for 10 minutes and have to start all over again but its better than nothing imho.

Thank you for your answer, that is already how I proceed, but it is not really satisfactory… So I wondered if I missed the point alltogether.
Undoing is a very standard feature that should be provided imho by default by Python for text edition, so I'm surprised that is not available (unless it is something else than ctrl-z, -y, -u).

CTRL+z ?

CTRL+Z is the very first thing I tried, it doesn't work.
