Description Nicolas Brisset 2006-06-23 16:08:13 UTC

Version:           1.3.0_devel (using KDE 3.4.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.3
OS:                SunOS (sun4u) release 5.8

I know a complete Undo/Redo framework is planned, but it is quite complicated to implement and will take some time to be available. Until that happens, it might be a good idea to add a confirmation dialog (with the "don't ask again" checkbox, or a kst setting to disable it like for closing windows) when a user deletes a plot. I have had many feedbacks that people deleted plots when they actually meant to delete a curve, and by the time they realized it, it was too late...

SVN commit 678967 by arwalker:

BUG:129706 Query user before deleting plot. By default the user is not queried but the feature can be switched on from the settings dialog. This is to maintain existing behaviour.
