WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND?

When deleting a Type or a Relation from the Library, it would be nice to be able to recover or restore such Type or Relation.

It is “relatively” simple to delete a Type or a Relation from the Library, but no option to undo if you did it by error.

HOW COULD IT BE DONE?

Maybe a Bin for Types and Relations

REAL WORLD USE CASES

When removing a Type or Relation in the Library, in case of wanting to restore, it would be as easy as going to the bin and restoring the Type or Relation that had been removed.

RECOMMENDED ALTERNATIVES

Option 1: a bin within Library (in the upper tabs)
Option 2: sending the removed Types / Relations to the general bin
Option 3: adding in the library a new tab. For example, in Relations it would be as follows:
My Relations | Anytype Library | Bin

This should be easy (er… famous last words), as if one deletes them through Sets, they go into the recycle bin, as asked here.

3

Deleted types and relations can now be found in the bin.

Where did you put the bin? I can’t find the recycle bin all over the ui, menu, etc. etc. Which genious’ idea

5

Click the three dots in on the All objects widget when the All objects widget is not opened.

This is an ABYSMALLY bad place to put the bin - on a context-menu brought up by a UI element that is not visible by default! I agree with @Maxilen - if the processes that allow changes like this to happen aren’t improved then this is not looking good for the long-term viability of Anytype as a solution.

Anyway, I’m glad they fixed this soon enough
