this behaviour was the same in previous versions, just a reminder.
well, this is somewhat intended behaviour. changing the GUI-settings is similar to sending messages to an object (under the hood). so if you start a [metro 1000] by sending it "1", you cannot undo it. similarily you cannot undo the [color( message sent to a GUI via the properties.
from a user's POV the difference is, that sending a "1" to the [metro 1000] is happending in "run mode", whereas changing the properties is (conceptually) happening in "edit mode".
- the horizontal slider shortcut changed, but I'm not seeing it used
anywhere else
iirc this has popped up on the list at least once before. the reason being that on macOS the old short-cut Shift+Cmd+H is already taken by the OS, making it unusable for Pd's purposes. in order to have constistent shortcuts across all OSs, it was changed to a value that is usable on all OSs.
i thought about writing a plugin to manually configure the keyboard-shortcuts, but had it postponed (as it was not so simple after all :-))
(- small detail: most shortcuts are described in the menus as "Ctrl+Shift+...", others as "Shift+Ctrl+...". I guess the first is the norm?)
the problem is, that there is no real norm (it's different on OSX and Windows; and on Linux there's no real standard). i agree that it should be consistent within Pd (and thought that i fixed it, but obviously did not).
