Since upgrading to 10.01 (from version 7) I am unable to undo any changes I make anymore, whether it be in Delphi Design time, or through the user interface during runtime.
Is this a known issue, or have I done somethign wrong?
The Undo feature was introduced for ReportBuilder 9 and was not available for RB 7. We have no known issues where it did not function. Are you able to use it at all? For instance, place a label on a report, move it to a new position, then select Undo from the Edit menu. If this does not work correctly you may have a corrupt installation. Try reinstalling your version of ReportBuilder.
I have not yet had time to try out v10, but in v9.03, the undo does have a problem when the undo is a move of several objects.
If I start moving the objects via and then attempt to undo the moves, the objects do not move in tandem. The initial move is applied to all objects, but RB records each object move separately so to undo the move, I have to undo by the number of objects selected.
If rather than using the keyboard , I drag the selected objects with the mouse or use the Nudge button on the toolbar, the move is recoded as a single action so the undo occurs en masse.

This now works correctly for RB 10.01.

Yup, that was the problem. Uninstalling and reinstalling RB1001 fixed the
problem.
Thanks & Regards
