Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin):
Operating System: 2018 Pro b9.5.0.193
Is there a way to disable or at least un/remap the undo function from ctrl+Z?
I don't mind not using it, but hitting ctrl+Z when making a mistake is almost a reflex, since this functionality is so ubiquitous.
Unfortunately, in my experience, the function is utterly unpredictable, sometimes undoing 10s of commands at once, not only in the workbook, but also all associated plots.
Combined with the missing redo capability this is more than an annoyance and can result in a lot of lost work.
In the current state I would really simply remove the functionality from the software. |

Whatevs,
If you want to turn off Undo permanently, go to Tools menu and select System Variables... and in the dialog add a variable UN (without the @) and set its value to 0.
It does the same as Jacqueline's suggestion, it just makes the setting persistent across Origin sessions.
You can later remove the variable from the dialog if you want to go back to undo in the future.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Chris Drozdowski

Hi,
If I do not misunderstand your question, you want to disable “Ctrl+Z” as an “Undo” Hotkey, right?
I am afraid there is not a good method to disable the hotkey in Origin currently.
If you want to disable “Undo” , you can try to set @UN System Variable to 0. This aystem variable specifies the maximum depth of UNDO stack
1. Select "Window: Script Window" to open "Script Window".
2. Enter following script in the Script Window
@UN=0;
3. Highlight the script and press "Enter" key. Then the “Undo” function will be disable.
Thanks
Jacqueline
