Can't delete test electronics project

sprior913 — Fri, 24 Jan 2020 02:49:38 GMT

Yesterday after I upgraded I followed along with the what's new to create a simple schematic, PCB, and Electronics Design. Now I can't delete any of them, they're all cross linked and in use. I've tried deleting them all at once and one at a time in all orders.

How do I make these things go away?

Hi @sprior913

great to see you here in the new Fusion Electronics forum.

If you want to delete your electronics project you have to delete the Electronics Design first (see image). Then you can delete the schematic and the board files.

Best regards,

That's what I thought, but it didn't work. When I tried to delete the electronic design I got an error that it was open when it wasn't.

Hi,

did you close the open tabs before?

Regards,

I don't know for sure whether I closed the tabs before exiting Fusion - you don't normally have to do that. But the problem of the electronic design not being able to be deleted remained the next day after I started Fusion again and worked on something unrelated, never opened the electronic project. I've even tried logging into the web interface as well as Fusion on another machine, can't delete it anywhere.

I found I had to open the Electronics Design in Fusion and then close it again and then I was able to delete it.
