Undelete allows you to restore any DataSets, DataStacks, Sheets, SheetSets, or annotation that were deleted from your document within the current session of CM4D. When a DataSet, DataStack, Sheet, SheetSet or Annotation is deleted, a backup is created for the deleted object. The only limitation to the number of objects that may be backed up is your computer's memory.
Once CM4D is closed or the document is saved, all backups for deleted objects will be purged.
If an undeleted DataSet, DataStack, Sheet, SheetSet, or annotation has the same label as an object of the same type in the document, then by default a number will be appended to the original object label when it is restored to the document.
To restore a DataSet or a DataStack deleted during the current session of CM4D:
1. Right click the main DataSets node of the DataSets tree.
2. Select Undelete DataSet from the context menu. This option will only appear after at least one DataSet (or DataStack) has been deleted.
a. In the Undelete DataSets dialog, select the check boxes next to the DataSet(s) or DataStack(s) labels that you want to restore to your document.
