Command-Z for undo does not work on the keyboard in text editing mode

[Evaluation complete.]

When editing/entering text, UNDO and REDO work with the toolbar and gestures on iPad, but not with a connected keyboard. This is extremely frustrating in a DTP program; could you please fix this bug ASAP, please.

I'm seeing the same. Sometimes it works once, but often not.

Workaround: When it doesn't work. Release the keys, then press Cmd until you get the popup. Then press Z.

It never works on this iPad. Workaround doesn’t either, but thanks.

Thank you. I dare say it’s quite critical functionality that basic commands work in the text section, so I hope it gets a proper boost in priority.

It’s unbearable to do extensive text work via keyboard in Publisher without such fundamental and frequently used functionality.

I'm running the latest version (ver. 2.6.1.3174) of Affinity Publisher on my iPad Air and I confirm this is an issue for me as well.

I also feel that it's important to have the undo/redo hotkeys work while editing text. Especially for Affinity Publisher, since managing and creating text is a major part of that app.
