Why does Ctrl-R or revert Transcript not work any more?

I've seen this effect for a long time in some of my own 8.6.3 images and thought that maybe I had broken something.

But now I also saw it in some customers' images as well: when you press Ctrl-R, nothing happens. The Menu item "Revert Ctr+R" is disabled in the Transcript's File menu...

Why is that, what is this good for, how can I change that?

Hello Joachim,

Thanks Seth,

good to know there are things in the image that have been broken by people other than myself ;-)

I like the clarity of the fix, btw. ;-))

Hello Joachim,

- Broken in 8.6.3.

- Fixed in 9.0 by case 61820
- Patch it with code below:

EtTranscript>>enableRevert
    "Private - Answer whether the revert menu option should be enabled.
     Transcript reverts should always be allowed
     Answers:
        <Boolean>"
    ^true

Kind Regards,

and I'm glad I didn't write in my first post that I was somewhat under the impression it works in a fresh image ;-))))
