Delete Entry from the details or edit page

Open lukengda opened this issue 5 years ago • 8 comments

Maybe i am overseeing something... but i am not finding any option to delete an entry from within a search.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to see a delete option similar in the three-dot action menu of the entry detail page next or near the edit button. It obviously needs to ask for confirmation.

If the edit button is to close to the delete button, i would consider moving the edit button into a FAB for entry detail pages. or next to the menu on the menu bar.

Describe alternatives you've considered I considered a placement in the entry editor. Other Editing views like the Google Contacts app used to have implemented it the same way. This adds another layer of accidental deletion protection. I would like to see it in the entry actions menu.

Additional context The main reason why having the deletion only in the folder / tree view is, that coming from a search (large keepass file without knowledge of folder location for entries) there is no way of deleting an entry if i am correct.

Correct me if it is wrong practice, just wanted to give this request a bump :D

This was very confusing to me. You can only delete entries if you navigate to them in the main navigation view. If you navigate to an entry using the search function, you cannot. As OP described it should be possible to delete from the search results and it should also be possible to delete while editing an entry.

I didn't realize you'd already solved the issue, can you do the pull request with your code please. I'll have a look.

I don't code. But I see the same issue still exists

If there are more important things to do, features like this don't take priority. Especially if there are other ways to still access the expected deletion behavior.

Being demanding regarding the time means (at the very least) that you have the skills or the power to be so (otherwise it would just be disrespectful to those who give their free time, obviously I'm sure this is not the case) so naturally I thought you'd already solved this issue. ;)

In any case, deletion can already be done from the search on version 4.0.0 beta2, so this issue becomes even less of a priority.

what other way is there to access delete when using search? Ah, I was not aware of beta, I'll try that
