Ok, here goes:

NR 2.2.2

I have a `debug` node _active_. I _DEACTIVATE_ it. `Deploy` button turns RED. (Fair enough)

I go else where and do something else. (`Deploy` button - no change.)

**OOPS!** I didn't want to do that last thing.  
I press `<CTL> Z` on the keyboard to undo that last thing.

`Deploy` button goes back to being GREY. The _Modified_ `debug` node is still showing with a blue dot on it as it has been _modified_.

Bug?

Assuming I'm following correctly, I'm not seeing the same behaviour.

- Drop a debug node into the flow and deploy.
- Edit the debug node and turn off Enabled - blue dot appears and Deploy turns red.
- Go to another flow and ctrl-Z - Deploy reverts to grey.
- Go back to initial flow and the blue dot is gone. This is where you're still seeing the blue dot?

However, I came here to see if something else has been reported as a bug with undo:

- Link 3 nodes
- Delete the middle node
- ctrl-Z to undo
- The middle node comes back, but the links do not. This is with NR 2.2.2, but I reckon it has been around for a while.

I don't think that is exactly what I said.

So, I have a flow and `debug` node. Set as.......

I click on the output tab of the node and it now is doing the opposite of what it was doing.

`DEPLOY` turns RED.

I go else where (that tab or else where)

I edit a node. Doesn't matter which. I can't remember exactly what I did.  
Then I wanted to undo that last change.

I press CTL Z and that change is undone.

But the `DEPLOY` button has changed back to GREY.

Going to the original `debug` node it is still marked as changed.

Maybe I'm still getting it wrong, but I'm still not seeing that behaviour:

- Drop a debug node into the flow and deploy.
- Click the tab on the debug to deactivate - Deploy turns red.
- Make a change to another node.
- ctrl-Z to undo that change. I am seeing the Deploy stays red. A second ctrl-Z turns it grey and removes the blue dot on the debug node. I think you're saying the Deploy goes grey after the first ctrl-Z.

Looking at the link though.... That's for windows... Yes?

Won't work on Ubuntu. ☹

I thought I would try to take screen shots and show things at _critical_ stages.

Typical: Now it is behaving itself.

Sorry folks.  
Seems I can't get it to happen again.

Maybe get a real OS 🤣

Failing that, maybe try one of these: [9 Best Screen Recorders for Linux in 2020 (itsfoss.com)](https://itsfoss.com/best-linux-screen-recorders/)
