[ BUILD # : 6.0 Beta1 ] [ JDK VERSION : 1.6.2 ] I am having an issue where my undo history is being cleared when working with refactoring. I'll give an example to help describe my issue. Say I have a block of code in a file like so: int i=0; while(i < 5) { i++; } And I start making some changes like so: int a=0; while(a < 5) { int j = 2; a++; } Then I decide to refactor the variable a=>i to match my newly added j. I highlight a and right click. I choose refactor->rename and modify the a to an i etc. Once this is completed my undo arrow is now disabled and I can no longer undo any of my editing history like remove the int j=2 part. I can undo the refactor by choosing "refactor"-> "Undo [rename]" which will undo the refactor but I still can't undo the int j=2 addition. In addition to this if do not undo the refactor but change j=2 to j=i; Then I can't undo the factor any more. I can only undo back to j=2. Then both my undo history is empty and the refactor undo is gone too. This to me is not the expected result. If I made a lot of changes in a file then did 1 refactor rename, I wouldn't expect to lose all my undo history.
Thanks for your report. This is known issue. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 48427 ***
