Deleting objects

Deleting an object removes it from the file. Deleting an instance on the Stage does not delete the symbol from the library.

1 Select an object or multiple objects.
2 Do one of the following:
Press Delete or Backspace.
Choose Edit > Clear.
Choose Edit > Cut.
Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Macintosh) the object and select Cut from the context menu.
