When clicking on a component and dragging, I was looking for a way to cancel the drag action. Hitting the escape key while still holding the left mouse button did indeed stop the drag action, but the component did not return to its original position. Hitting undo did not return it to its original position either, so the result is that you have made a change to the schematic which is not logged correctly in the undo history. Was the escape key supposed to return the component to the original position?

Hi Frits
Malc implemented the do/undo, he's the best person to answer your question, I think he'll be around later today.
Thanks for your suggestion to update the forum's php code, like you said it was easy enough, I also did a backup as you suggested.

Escape is not supposed to cancel dragging and I can see what you mean, it does screw things up if you do this. Thanks for pointing this out.
As you've discovered, if you drag somewhere and want to go back then undo is the easiest way to do this.
