Hi all - what Attribute should I enable to protect a note from being accidentally backspace-deleted?
ReadOnly - doesn’t prevent a Note from being deleted, only modified.
Lock - seems to lock a Note’s physical location on the map, not what I seek.
Thanks!
There isn’t one. You’re the boss: if you don’t want to delete a note, don’t delete it!
Okay! 
It’s just I’m clumsy is all lol.
Also, in the moment, ‘undo’ will undelete a note. Beyond that, walking back in the timeline there are current session last saved version (see menu File ▸ Revert To…). Then there is Time Machine or other back-up mechanisms.
Thanks, never used so far. Just made copies. Is there a setting or how often is it saved automatically?
I also have sometimes the issue that I unintentionally delete a container with notes. This happens in outline view when
I cannot replicate it but it appears that a »uncoordinated« mouse movement form me causes the issue. If this happens Undo or Ctrl+Z doesn’t work. The container is gone and not part anymore of the current TBX document.
File ▸ Revert is, at present, less reliable than quitting Tinderbox and then using Time Machine to restore an earlier version.
I’m reasonably confident that it is not the case that moving a container around could delete the container, and am very confident that selecting notes with ⇧-click would not do so.
I can confirm this. The problem is on my side, the user and how I move the containers around. Since I changed back from a mouse pad to an ordinary mouse, it works better.
how about an OnRemove action on the container where those “save” notes are stored?
I copy the note to a container “archive” and there you could add an action that will remove the notes after some time.

This is a smart idea, thanks! Now to write a stamp to retroactively implement it on all my containers
