Back arrow- when I make a mistake

When I am working on a timeline I would love to have a back arrow in case I deleted something on my line by mistake. Now I need to go into the sandbox and copy over what I did wrong. Please add a back arrow

Totally agree, Marc. We've had several project schedules messed up because when a PM uses the drag & drop feature, if they hover too long over the location that they want to move the task to, Workfront automatically assumes that all tasks below it should become subtasks to that task.

Undo button on the task view when we move a task and drop it accidently at the wrong place in the list.

I had a mini-mutiny because a major project got completely screwed up from drag/drop issues which weren't caught until the damage was extensive and irreversible. There are multiple factors at work in my example (drag/drop issues, performance with more than 1k tasks, confusion on how indented tasks display, the need to refresh after moving tasks, etc.) but all of them could have been overcome with Edit and Finalize. This would be incredible.

Would like an "edit" mode for editing a live project, with a "finalize" button

An undo or redo button would be a great enhancement to fix mistakes within the tool.
