<title>Undoing, redoing, and discarding changes</title>
<p>
GNOME Text Editor automatically keeps track of changes made while editing
a file.
Changes can be undone and redone while editing, making it easy to fix
mistakes.
</p>
<note style="important">
<p>
Changes tracked for a file will be lost after closing it, or after
<link xref="#discard_changes">discarding changes</link>.

<title>Undoing or redoing a change</title>
<p>
Pressing
<keyseq>
<key>Ctrl</key>
<key>Z</key>
</keyseq>
will undo the last change made to a file.
Using this shortcut repeatedly will continue undoing changes as they
were originally made.

<p>
Pressing
<keyseq>
<key>Ctrl</key>
<key>Shift</key>
<key>Z</key>
</keyseq>
will redo the last undone change in a file.
Using this shortcut repeatedly will continue redoing changes as they were
originally made.
</p>
<note style="important">
<p>
Changes can be redone <em>only</em> if the previous editing operation
was undo or redo.
For example, typing text into a file directly after undoing a change
will prevent redoing the last undone change.
