Hi Glide Community,

By mistake I deleted a button component and that button had a custom action “show a new screen”.  
Before this costly mistake I was creating several new buttons and “new screen” with that same type of custom action moving…my goal was to move to the next page of a survey.

I tried the crtl + z but the button didn’t get back with the first action I created so now when I create a button with the action “New Screen” it move to a “real new screen” without all the work and component I created before.

Is there a way to retrieve those screens or at least to explain me how to avoid this type of costly mistake 🙂

Thank you in advance for your help

Unfortunately, there is no way to recover that screen. The thing you can do to avoid this problem is to make a copy of the App before proceeding with any major changes.

Or at least make a copy of the button and hide it with visibility conditions as a backup.
