# Delete

The delete function is activated either by selecting the Delete item of the Edit Menu or by pressing the delete tool button (see Figure 1) of the Main Window Tool Bar.

The delete function can only be activated in edit mode and when one or more nodes or links are selected in the Network Pane.

The selected objects will be deleted from the network. It will not be copied to the clipboard. The cut function is very similar to the delete function, but it copies the deleted objects to the clipboard.
