HELP! How do I Remove Quick Delete button in Outlook 2013? Or a workaround?!

The Quick Delete button is very often accidentally touched when flagging or using the slider, especially on a jumpy laptop mouse pad and then deletes the message
mistakenly and can be deleted if there is a deletion schedule for the trash. Not only that... but there is NO CONFIRMATION of deletion?! Extremely poor design.
At least make it possible to move the quick delete away from the slider bar or the flag?

Hi,
Apologize for any inconvenience caused. This feature is hard-coded and there is no way to remove it. However, we can enable Touch Mode to work around this issue. Click the Customize Quick Access ToolBar down arrow, click to enable Touch/Mouse Mode option.
Then, click the Touch/Mouse Mode button from the QAT and change it to Touch Mode.
Regards,
Steve Fan

Remove Quick Delete button in Outlook 2013?

I've asked this
here, but how do I remove the Quick Delete button in the Outlook view, but retain the Flag Status column?
They seem to share the same column.
Thanks.

I can't comment on touch but with a mouse the only option this leaves us is to turn off the flag status column and forces every one who uses flags to right click or remember key commands.
If there is always a delete X on the far right, I can live with that...
What's really a problem is that if you alter the view setting > column order and try to move flag status anywhere else that isn't 5 pixels away from the delete X it always stays on the far right and it ignores the column settings
that seems like a bug to me.
I mean being able to customize for ones needs/taste is one the many things that makes outlook awesome, why take that away?
not to mention this one should be pretty obvious as risky.
i.e. oh this message is important, let me flag it and get back to it, oh crap i deleted it, arrg i'm using imap email like gmail on my non work profile, hitting ctrl + z doesn't really undo a delete ...sure you can manually find in the trash, but I wouldn't
label that as a "awesome/helpful UI experience" more like, terrifying you for a few seconds UI. Even worse, if you are in hurry, you might not notice you've deleted it.

How to hide/remove the 'Delete' button for a particular role

We have a role that can only Create and Edit the Accounts, Contacts, Opportunities, & Leads. So I modified the Default and Owner Access Profiles for that role and changed the Access Level to 'Read/Edit' for each of the above mentioned Record Types.
When the user is logged with this role they can see the 'Delete' button on all the Record Types. When they click on the 'Delete' button they get the 'Access Denied' message. Thats fine, but how do you hide/remove the 'Delete' button for this role so they don't try to click it.

At this time it is not possible to hide/remove the "Delete" button. This functionality is on the roadmap.

How do I remove old image buttons from Properties panel?

Hi,
I have been working out how to use Image Buttons in Captivate 6 and have created loads which now appear in the Properties Panel.
How do I remove unused image buttons from the Properties Panel?
Thanks

Hi there
When you look at the Properties panel, you see ALL available images for the buttons. (Assuming that you are referring to to the stock images supplied by Captivate)
Is this the list you are trying to clear?
If so, it's the same list you see with any project Captivate creates.
Cheers... Rick

How do I remove or delete a page from a Section?

How do I remove or delete a page from a Section in Pages?

The blank page is not blank, there is something on it like a return or word space, or a page break or return on the previous page that forces over to the "blank" page.
Menu > View > Show Invisibles and delete it.
Think of a word processing document like a scroll which you view through a set of frames (the pages).
The scroll is filled from the front and flows through as many pages as necessary to accomodate the text in the main text area between the margins.
Pages has one quirk however which catches out many users. Floating objects stay on their absolute page, the one where they were placed. If that page no longer exists because the text no longer flows that far, the floating objects are no longer visible. They are still in the document but off the end page, much like objects moved completely off the page to the right or down are still there but not visible.
So if you want to make sure floating objects are entirely removed from the document delete, or move, those first, then select the text on that page by dragging over it or shift clicking from top to bottom and hit delete.

How do I remove or delete files within a document folder? I have tried dragging the files to the trash and it does not work

How do I remove or delete files and image files within a document foler? I have tried dragging the files to the trash, but that is not working.

Right-click (or ctrl-click) on a file. If the "move to Trash" option is greyed out, select "get info" and read the permissions at the bottom of the info window.
Wat are they?
Do the same for the enclosing folder - what permissions does that have?
