Can't confirm this with

Version: 6.2.0.0.beta1 (x64)
Build ID: d1b41307be3f8c19fe6f1938cf056e7ff1eb1d18
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; VCL: win;
Locale: en-US (de_DE); UI-Language: en-GB
Calc: threaded

But I must admit, that step 5 is not clear enough to me.

It is not possible to insert an input field already created in another part of
the document.

How insert un input field that already exists?

It is possible to mark that field => copy => paste

This can be done if a input field already exists in the document, but if it has
been deleted, how can I add it again without having to create it from 0?

I don't think that this is possible, but i also wouldn't expect it. You also
can't insert the same table, shape or something like that, if you have removed
it.

Attach screenshot.

This is a field, in the same way that the variable type fields appear, the
input list fields should appear.
