Manipulating Map Views
You will be asked to confirm that you want to delete the map.
A submap must be empty before you can delete it.
You cannot use the Delete Map command to delete the Root Map.
To delete the Root map you must delete the entire View with the Delete View command.
Cutting Map Nodes
You can cut selected device, decorative,or textnodes from the map in order to paste them
in another location.
• You can cut a submap node as long as it is empty
• You cannot cut a hyper node. A hyper node will be removed automatically as
appropriate, if all nodes on the current map that have links to that node, are removed
• L2 cloud nodes can be cut, but cannot be pasted.
To cut one or more nodes, do the following:
1 Select the nodes you want to cut.You can select multiple nodes by dragging the cursor
to rubber-band the selection, or by using Shift-click (hold down the shift key while
clicking the cursor on the nodes you want to select).
2 Then, cut the nodes by doing one of the following:
— Select Cut Map Nodes from the Edit menu
— Click the “Cut nodes from map” icon on the icon bar
— Enter [Alt]+X from the keyboard
You will NOT be asked to confirm this action: if you cut a node by mistake, you will
just need to paste it back again to the map.
To remove nodes from the map without provision for pasting them, use the Delete Map
Nodes command.
