How do I delete old files/failures left from the learning process.

[crchisholm]

There does not seem to be a way to delete my old files.  I have moved the slider back to the beginning so I don't accidently open the wrong file, but that just means I have a bunch of files that just have blank images.

Hi @crchisholm,

Thank you for posting! You can delete files by right clicking on a file in the Data panel and also you can do the same in this page too. However, from your description I'm not sure if that is what you are looking for. 

Could you elaborate a little bit about the workflow that you are using? Screenshot will be helpful for me to better understand the issue.

<Edit> You can also delete bodies in the browser, and unnecessary history in the timeline by right clicking and selecting the Delete.

Does this method also remove the files from the machines they are stored on?

I do not seem to have the same options that you show in your screen shot.  Is there maybe something that I have not turned on somewhere?

I guess I will take it that there is no solution to this problem and that once created, I am stuck with whatever I saved for life.

Thanks anyway.

Files no longer needed can be deleted.

And thus my question:  how?   The screen shots so far offered do not match my screens.  I do not have a "delete" option in the right click menu on the data screen.

How about attaching some screenshots of what you are seeing. You can't delete files from the samples projects or folders by the way, they are read only.

Have you tried deleting using the Dashboard.

Message above has a screen shot of were I don't have the delete option. "Fusion delete drawings..."

[HughesTooling]

Sorry missed that. After a bit of experimenting the only time I see what you have is if Fusion is in offline mode.

Ok, not sure how I got in offline mode, I did notice that about half of my drawings were not visible wh n I loaded the fusion app on my iPad.  That would explain it. 

Thank you.
