CHAPTER 15 / 33

Remove parts, remove wires, and undo changes

Delete components from any project and recover accidental edits.

Named power, ground and signal pins connected across the Sentinel inspection rover wiring diagram.
Drag a named pin near another pin, or select two endpoints with the keyboard. Snap distance affects the diagram interaction, while pin roles drive supported diagnostics. View full size ↗

Every project component can be removed, including parts supplied by a template. Use the trash button on its Assembly row, select it and choose Remove component in the inspector, or use the selected-part delete control in the viewport toolbar.

With a component selected and focus outside text inputs, Delete or Backspace removes it. When typing in the code editor, search, or an input field, these keys edit text instead. Close a dialog before using the workspace deletion shortcut.

Removing a part also removes logical wires that reference its pins. Parts attached to the removed parent are kept with their root-relative poses and detached ownership. Other components are not automatically deleted.

  1. Use Undo to recover the previous project state, including a removed part and its connections.
  2. Use Redo to reapply an undone change. A new edit clears the redo branch.
  3. To remove only a logical connection, open Wiring and choose the trash button for that connection.
  4. To remove a visible cable-layout instance, delete that instance. It is separate from the logical connection list.
