Move the Trash icon to right side of screen on indexing.

I press the trash can icon instead of the submit icon and then have to repeat the typing for that image.

If the Trash icon and the Submit icon were in different directions it would really help me when I am following my routine.

I index Italian records for 4-5 hours a day. I have been doing it for 8 years and there are 33 Italian project available but only 13 Spanish! And do you know how many more countries speak Spanish than Italian?

Thank you for your consideration. I have been thinking about submitting this idea for weeks.

    Hi @Vern_1

    With respect, I prefer the Trashcan icon where it is (8th from the left), in the middle of the horizontal toolbar, and, intuitively, just to the right of the + icon for adding entries. It's pretty far away from the Submit icon (3rd from the left).

    The Trashcan icon also has a confirmation dialogue (see below) to safeguard against accidentally deleting an entry because you must click twice to complete the delete action.

    I'm sorry that you've had this problem; I think that the current separation on the toolbar plus the confirmation dialogue provides enough protection against most accidental deletions.
