Precondition:
You have opened a page, form, plot frame or symbol.
- Mark the desired elements and select the menu items Edit > Delete (or press [Del]).
The elements are completely deleted.
Unlike the Cut command, it is not possible to insert deleted elements into the page again, because they are not stored in the Clipboard. You can, however, use the Undo command to reinsert the elements.
Delete areas
- Use the mouse to drag the frame around the desired elements.
Selected elements are displayed in a different color. - Select the menu item Edit > Delete (or press [Del]).
The elements within the area are completely deleted.
Notes:
- It is possible first to select the Delete command, then to select the elements to be deleted. In this case, you must select the elements using area selection.
- If you want to delete the entire page contents, use [Ctrl] + [A] to select all elements on the page and then press [Del]. All components and graphical elements will be deleted. If necessary, update the display using the menu item View > Redraw.
