Re: Edit Undo Keystroke Mapping

I figured this out and wanted to share with others.

I added the below to my layer.xml file. My assumption that the NetBeans 
RCP app creation has this by default (since it is in the IDE) and that I 
must be doing something wrong, was incorrect. Adding this allows the 
Undo/Redo functionality to work properly with the control keys, plus it 
adds the key sequence to the Edit menu; which I was also looking for.

<folder name="Shortcuts">
         <file name="D-Z.shadow">
             <attr name="originalFile" 
stringvalue="Actions/Edit/org-openide-actions-UndoAction.instance"/>
         </file>
         <file name="D-Y.shadow">
             <attr name="originalFile" 
stringvalue="Actions/Edit/org-openide-actions-RedoAction.instance"/>
         </file>
</folder>
