unable to delete body

[Anonymous]

I am unable to delete the body (body2) from the browser or from history.

I use this work flow: 

Select the browser's body2 folder or history item, then right click > Delete.

Nothing happens.

Here is the screenshot:

This should be able to be deleted.  Can you share the model here or directly to me, so we can take a look?

Thanks,

Jeff

Also, try right click -> Remove on this body, just to see if that command works.

@jeff_strater:

>>  right click -> Remove

Do you mean to hover over the body in canvas, then right click....?

In this case, there is no such option.

I will send you the file.

Thanks for sharing the file @Anonymous.  I am able to delete this body OK.  However, I maybe understand the confusion about this, which has been reported elsewhere:  what-is-the-difference-between-delete-and-remove-a-component-or.

As I said in the referenced thread, we internally are not totally in agreement on the terminology.  But, there are two commands that do different things:  Delete and Remove.  Delete is a "hard delete", which Fusion interprets as "delete this body from the design totally", which means:  delete any features that created this body.  Remove, on the other hand, is what we call "soft delete", which inserts a new feature in the timeline that removes the body from the design, but because that is a feature, it can be suppressed, or the end can be rolled back before the feature, in which case the body is still in the design.

Here is a video showing the difference between the two on your design:
