Photoshop CC 2019: How do I enable "classic" undo
The new Photoshop CC 2019 has a new undo feature which doesn't require you to press multiple buttons to step back more than one step.
While this certainly is a widely requested feature, it can have problems.
When I'm editing photos, I like to compare the original photo by looking through history.
This was easy in other versions of Photoshop, since you could just press ctrl/cmd+z and compare 2 things in your history panel.
Now in Photoshop CC2019 the comparison is harder since you have to press multiple buttons in order to compare these changes.
I'd like an option for users of Photoshop to switch back to the old undo.

It's more of an A/B comparison.

My Wacom Intuos Pro tablet settings will not register any changes I make to them, but only in Photoshop; other apps work fine. I'm using a Mac on OS Mojave. I noticed because the 2019 update changed the "Step backward" command from CMD-Option-Z to simply CMD-Z. I tried to change my tablet's button layout to accommodate, but the changes never registered. Frustrated, I reset all the settings, and now they will not change and I'm stuck without any button shortcuts or pen settings for Photoshop. Is there a fix for this, or is this a genuine bug?

Please don't muck around with keyboard bindings. I still can't resize the canvas without looking at the menu, because someone blindly changed the image size/canvas size menu hotkeys years ago. (I don't know what the keys were, only that my fingers knew them and I didn't have to think about it, and once my muscles learn a hotkey for something that deeply, it's nearly impossible to change.)
Please don't make core UI changes just to make first-day novices happy, at the expense of your actual, experienced user base.

it seems to allow CTRL+Z by itself to step undo. why they removed step undo I have no idea. seems idiotic.

So I made a pencil scribble and hit undo.
I expected it to just undo the pencil. It went back 2 steps and undid an important time consuming transformation. Ouch.
Think I'll be careful with this and keep History open from now on.
