Recycle

Right-click commands for the Recycle branch of the Collections Tree, which mirrors the project's RECYCLING folder. Files deleted from the tree — HTML pages, reports, billboard textures, imported data files — are moved here rather than removed, so a deletion can be undone by taking the file back out of the folder. So are the files moved by Recycle unused data files, each under the same folder name it came from: ORTHOPANELS\Panel.orthopanel lands in RECYCLING\ORTHOPANELS.

Files here still take up disk space until the folder is emptied.

Source resources: IDR_CT_RECYCLE, IDR_CT_RECYCLE_GROUP.
