Details
There are three methods to remove an object from Model Viewer.
1. The user runs the Select
command to select an object graphically in
Model Viewer. The Delete command
can then be selected via the Labels Tab to remove the object.
2. The user runs the Select command to select an
object graphically in
Model Viewer. The user can then press the 'Delete' key on the keyboard to
remove the object.
3. If multiple objects are required to be removed from
Model Viewer, than it
is much faster to remove objects via the
Object List command. Using this
command, the user can select multiple objects to remove from a list. Also,
there is an option via the Object List dialog to remove all objects from
Model Viewer. The Object List command is accessed via the
Labels tab on
the ribbon.
Objects imported into Model Viewer are either of type 'parent' or 'copy'. It is important to note that if a 'parent' object is deleted, than all references known as 'copy' objects will also be removed from Model Viewer.
