Deleting Profile Sub-entities

Product Documentation
Intermediate

Use the Profile Layout Tools dialog box to remove tangents and curves from a layout profile.

When you delete a curve, the tangents on either side of the curve are preserved. If the tangents were joined when they were created, the tangents are joined at the PVI after the curve is deleted.

Note

You cannot delete a tangent that has a curve attached to it. Before deleting a tangent, you must first delete the PVI and any dependent curves and tangents.

You can delete profile sub-entities either using the Profile Layout Tools dialog box or selecting the sub-entity and pressing Delete.
