Is it possible to make Telerik's undo behaviour match that of Microsoft Word?
Here is an example: Try typing the following into Word and into RadEditor:
one two three
four five six
seven eight nine
When you're done, hit Undo.
In Word, the last word, then the last sentence, and then each subsequent sentence are "undone". In RadEditor, the whole block disappears.
Is there an option to have the undo behaviour match Word's?

Hi Darren,
The editor's Undo / Redo functionality is not as advanced as in Word due to different technologies under which both products work - after all Word is a much more advanced desktop application whereas our editor is an HTML web server control limited by the browser and the JavaScript engine. If the Undo / Redo list of RadEditor saves all words in its list then this will drastically decrease performance.
I tested the reported scenario and saw that the Undo list saves the lines and enter key presses as expected. You can see my test in the attached video.
You wrote that "In RadEditor, the whole block disappears." What do you mean by a block - a single line "one two three" or the whole block
"one two three
four five six
seven eight nine "?
