Using TopoDroid-X v6.2.44-34.

Steps to reproduce:

- Create a survey (named e.g. TestSketchDeleting by team Testing).
- Create a dummy shot (e.g. 0 1 1.0 45 0)
- Create a New sketch (named e.g. 10).
- Open the Rename/Delete dialog and Delete the sketch (confirm the action).
- Try to create a New sketch. It tries to name it '11'. Changing it to '10' shows a 'Duplicate name' red warning.

It seems that some internal reference is not being removed/cleaned when a sketch is deleted.

the deleted sketch is kept.

If that is the case:

Can the 'delete' option be renamed to 'disable' and have disabled sketches optionally shown in the sketch list (probably greyed out) to have a better view/knowledge of the content that TD is managing/handling (maybe just for Tester activity level at first)?

Can 'deleted' sketches be activated/enabled back again given that they still exist after deletion?

Cheers

indeed different words could be used here.
delete is just as on the pc: "move to the trash bin".

the name of the plots in the list do not tell much, unfortunately.
when you have a dozen sketches only the display of the drawing is useful.

recovery menu.
