Proposal created (I hope it will not be a problem as it is an Issue not the 'discussion' ... there are no other options)
godotengine/godot-proposals#8433

Update:
Proposal was merged with godotengine/godot-proposals#423.

@Calinou, @AThousandShips - this means green light or should I still wait for approval of proposal #423?

[AThousandShips]

Proposals don't really get the green light like that, all we really give is "we'd like to see this", it's all down to the PR, the only thing is that a proposal can be turned down due to lack of interest or being incompatible

a "clear defaults" button to clear all the build in default inputs would also be useful, i often end up deleting them 1 by 1

Thank you for this PR!

If you want to add more functionality like the clear default button as @MMUTFX2053 suggested, it might be better to move these buttons (Import Actions, Export Actions, Delete Default Actions) under a vertical three dot dropdown menu like in other areas of the editor to show additional options.

Thak you for feedback. Here is updated ui with tree dot menu (also I moved show defaults):

EDIT: I'm not sure about "Reset Built-in Actions", should I use "Restore Built-in Actions" or reset is descriptive enough?

[MMUTFX2053]

@ZycaR i think "restore built-in actions" is more descriptive

[ZycaR]

Update:
Remove Built-in Action events -> This action remove all 'key' events from build in actions.
Restore Built-in Action events -> Reset build-in actions to default deadzone (0.5) and 'key' events.

Question:
Is there a chance that list of built-in actions (ui_accept, ui_select, ...) will be modified during running of godot editor? I dig a bit in code and looks like editor does not count with alteration of list of built-in actions .. only 'key' events and deadzone value.

I hope the Pull Request is ready for review! Does the editor have unit tests?

[YuriSizov]

Does the editor have unit tests?

You can add them if you have an idea how to test this for regression.

Also make sure to check the CI reports, you have codestyle issues which need to be fixed before the full CI suite can run: https://github.com/godotengine/godot/actions/runs/6937666541/job/18883753525?pr=84902

@YuriSizov - builds are green ... finally :)

I don't know about others, but I personally always toggle the "show built in actions" whenever I start a new project. Since I always add to those default actions.
For me this is so common thing to do to warrant the "show built in actions" staying outside the three dot dropdown.

The "Add new action" box is also incredibly large, and the "Add" Button all the way to the right, so I think there is enough space to have and keep the "show built in actions" there as it is right now. What do you think?

We can keep the switch there if it is desirable. I'll also include it in tree-dot menu to have this options together with new remove/restore built in actions.
