I'm curious for what reason you need a toolbar icon for these for? I do agree they're 'standard' but I feel like using keyboard shortcuts for those operations are already very familiar to the user (CTRL+X, CTRL+C and CTRL+V for Windows) that it's not 'necessary' for them to be in the toolbar, and it's also a much quicker workflow compared to clicking a button at the top of the screen. The toolbar is currently undergoing a redesign and we're actually trying to cut down the amount of buttons there so if you could elaborate more on your use case that would be great |

@rexelbartolome,
I use them a lot. un/fold one level or all levels are commands that work different then clicking the unfolding symbol in the node, specially when working with big branches.
I don't need any of these, but I think maybe they should be easier to access in the pop up menu from the node (right click on the node). Maybe a first section with this standard commands. For example to delete the selected node yoy have to navigate the popup menu. see following image:

In my notebook to get Insert, I have to press [ Fn + Del ] . If I would use Insert for inserting a node, that will mean that I had to press
This makes it not very user friendly and it must be used frequently. That's why I use F12 to insert new nodes. But I remember that as new user I wanted to use TAB to insert new nodes. That was what I felt natural at that moment. About Keyboard vs Mouse workflows:I think there are moments when using Freeplane that I want to work keyboard only and others when I want to go mouse only.

I have added buttons for copy, paste, cut, and delete in the latest preview 1.10.3_10 because mouse lovers, toolbar users, and other freeplane newbies might miss them and because Rexel and I already put the effort into removing some other stuff from the toolbar. I am not sure if we keep them or revert the change. Any feedback and considerations are welcome. https://sourceforge.net/projects/freeplane/files/freeplane%20preview/ |

Also in preview, 1.10.3_10 I changed the new node hot key to TAB instead of INSERT and changed the default selection method to "by click". Actually, both suggestions are not new and I think that I agree with them. |

Would be nice to have Buttons for Copy, Cut and Paste in the Toolbar like in (almost all) other programs for a quick workflow.
