Delete sketches from timeline

[nathanPVPVF]

I would like to be able to delete sketches from my timeline, just like I can delete other features from there.
But from what I seen, it's only possible to delete a sketch from the browser.

When modeling I mostly look at the timeline, since this is where my last features are placed.
Now, I need to right click my sketch -> find in browser -> right click the sketch in browser -> delete.

If it's a one on one link with the browser, then why can't I just delete it from the timeline?

You should be able to delete a sketch from the timeline, if you cannot, please post the model you are having issues with and let the Forum users take a look.

Why would you want to delete sketches?

I personally usually don't have sketches in my timeline or browser that aren't used for something later in the timeline.

I do generally agree, however, that some of the menu selections we have when selecting objects form the browser, would also nice to have when selecting features in the timeline and vice versa.

For example I can right click on a sketch in the browser and select "show dimensions". But I cannot select that same sketch int the timeline and do it from there.

After some reflection, my problem was with the visibility of sketches from timeline, and not with the deletion of sketches from timeline. My apologies, I will start a new thread with pictures this time.
