Can't delete multiple sheets in 2012

[Anonymous]

Inventor 2012 doesn't allow me to select multiple sheets & delete them. Yet another regression. I wish I had stayed with 2009.

This one had me curious, so I did some investigating.

As it turns out 2009 didn't allow you to delete multiple sheets either. As soon as you select a second sheet the Delete Sheet (via Right-Click) will be disabled.

I dug deeper and found that there is an open Enhancement Request to be able to do a multi-sheet delete. As far as I can determine, Inventor has never been able to do this. Maybe you're thinking of Layouts in AutoCAD?

How did you do that?

Unless I'm missing something, as far as I can remember, and just tried in 2008 and 2010, you can only delete one sheet at a time.

Hello Dave,

I thought for sure I could do this in 2009. If you've already checked this & it's not working then I am wrong. I don't feel like restoring a v2009 backup to a virtual machine to check, so I will take your word for it.

Hello Mike,

Thank you for checking & confirming it never existed. I guess there is too much mercury in my diet.
