Undo and redo
Undo (Ctrl+Z) and Redo (Ctrl+Y, or Ctrl+Shift+Z) work on the changes you make to the activity's pages: moving a page, deleting a content page, taking an interaction page out, switching the cover or finish screen on or off, and the In this activity settings of a page. Hover over Undo to see which change it will take back.
While you are typing in a box, Ctrl+Z undoes your typing instead. When you delete something, a message also appears with its own Undo button.
