Elmar,

True, but if you have been keeping backups you can open a backup file
simultaneously with your data file, find the eroneously deleted
transaction, copy it [Transaction > Copy], return to the main file and
paste it back in [Transaction > Paste Transaction].

I do this a few times each year when I screw up.

Warning!  when you do this, close the backup file before closing the main
file, to avoid corrupting certain settings or accidentally switching to the
backup the next time you open GnuCash.
