Delete key (del) does not open menu

Themeepclub — Tue, 29 May 2018 22:26:29 GMT

Pressing the del key on my keyboard doesn't open the delete menu. Selecting an object and pressing delete works but I'm trying to open the menu that allows me to select multiple items and delete them. Does the keyboard shortcut for the delete menu work for anyone else out there? Or is the delete function only supposed to work once an object is selected.

Hi @Themeepclub

Thanks for posting! The delete key is not a shortcut for a command in Fusion - there is not a delete dialog box or menu in Fusion 360. The delete key will simply deleted any selected entities.

For multiple selections, you can hold down the CTRL key ((CMD on Mac) and select multiple entities to delete from either the model visualization or the browser tree.

I hope this helps clarify this! Please let me know if you have any questions.
