- 7.1.4 DELETE ENTITY
-
-
- The DELETE ENTITY command is used to delete entities from an X-CAD drawing.
-
-
- COMMAND FORMAT
-
- #DELETE ENTITY modifiers :Ent x1 x2 ... xn
-
- All entities identified after the IDENTS prompt will be deleted. It is
- important to note that there is no undo facility in X-CAD so this command
- should be used carefully. Once an entity has been deleted, it cannot be
- recovered. ( Entering control-Q at any stage will abort the command ).
-
- DELETE ENTITY will respect all inter-entity relationships. If an identified
- entity has any equal or child members, these and any of their respective
- families will also be deleted. ( See UNLINK modifier ).
-
- If you are not sure about the overall effect of deleting an entity, it may
- be wise to use the VERIFY FAMILY command to highlight family groups, or the
- FAMILY mode in IDENTS.
-
-
- MODIFIERS
-
- UNLINK The UNLINK modifier can be used to specify that selected
- entities should have any inter-entity relationships dis-
- connected prior to being deleted. In this case, only entities
- idetified via IDENTS will be be deleted, family groups are
- not traced.
