Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

sometimes I find myself accidentally deleting an action or brush from a panel. when I work fast, sometimes I click the action with the right click and then hit "cut" or "delete". there is no way to get it back there though, unless I reload the panel itself from a file (in case I have it)
or is there a way?

The only way I know of is to reload the panel and there are other good reasons to get into the habit of saving them. If you save them as tvpx files, it is very simple to reload one just by dragging the tvpx from your HD back on top of TVP.

If you click CANCEL instead of OK, the edit will abort. Then restart editing and the deleted line will be back and you can start all over again.

Sven, If we are talking about the same thing, once you select cut, the action is gone and there is nothing else to select.

Sorry, I was thinking it was while editing the command list inside a button...

Yes, I do keep custom panels saved usually, but once it happened to me with the default panel. What I did is I made the panel editable, because I wanted to copy a tool from it. Instead I accidentally deleted another tool. I don't remember how did I restore it, but this happens too easily so I suppose it could have a special undo function... Or at least "restore default panels".

If you cut...why don't you just paste?

or am I missing something?


delete is a different matter though
