To "move" an attribute to a different category is as simple as editing the attribute with the Attributes Editor (hyperlinked earlier in the thread) and changing the Category string value (system attribute categories can't be modified).

If you delete a non-system attribute (system attributes can't be deleted) in the Attributes Editor, they will be deleted. Are you deleting them in the Item Attributes Pane? If so, this only deletes the selected attribute assigned to the currently selected Info Item(s), but not the underlying attribute definition (which is managed with the Attributes Editor mentioned and hyperlinked above).

Note: when you insert an attribute into the Item Attributes Pane that is not pre-existing, its definition is created. So you essentially you can create attributes using the Item Attributes Pane, but you can't edit or delete them there. Hope that helps.

If I haven't understood your question, please provide more detail and we'll respond appropriately.
