6.4.3 Delete an Element

To delete an element from the Unattached Elements or Entity Elements list, select it and click the button on the toolbar.

Note that elements cannot be deleted form an External Entity.

You will be asked to confirm the element's deletion. Select Yes to delete the element, or the No to Cancel the deletion.

Note that he deletion behavior depends on the element list from which you are deleting:

• If you are deleting the element from the Entity Elements list, it is detached and becomes available in the Unattached Elements window for later use if required.

• If deleted from the Unattached Elements window, the element is completely deleted from the model.

• If an element that has been inherited via a relationship is deleted from the Entity Elements list, the entire corresponding relationship with the opposing entity is also deleted.

Note that deleting an element will not delete the corresponding field from the LANSA Repository.
