UNDO needed in IDE
Enabling undo for moused step manipulation would be extremely useful. In other words, when I accidentally drag groups of 20 or 30 steps I'd like to be able to undo it instead of having to revert to the last saved version of my project.
I think part of my problem is that it seems intuitive to me that if I move a group somewhere that the steps in the group move with it. Whenever I fumble-finger or move steps around by mistake I end up throwing out sometimes hours of work because I'm unwilling to spend time trying to make sense of what happened. The first thing I do in this situation is to go for my old friend "undo". Have you considered, or are you considering adding this functionality? Thanks, Peter |

Undo/redo is on the list for a future release. I tend to make a habit out of "save early, save often" so that if I make a change that I don't want to keep, the amount of lost changes is minimal (but this is no excuse for not having full undo capability).
Also, in Tools | Options | User Options, you can configure VBP to create a backup file when saving, so you can always get back to the previously saved version. If it helps at all in this particular case, if you collapse a step before dragging/copying/cutting, the child steps will be included in the operation. We're also considering providing a way (maybe a user option) to automatically include the child steps when not collapsed (the difficulty is that sometimes you may want to move an individual step without affecting the children). Admin note: Undo/redo implemented in v6. |

re: undo needed
Collapsing is a very helpful technique. Thanks for the tip!
What if you enable an "option" drag, where the child steps are included if the user drags with the option key down? BTW, I love this tool. I've only been using it for about 2 weeks, but it's great stuff. |
