Deleting a Single Feature

You can delete a single feature provided it is at proper position.

Feature in first position:


  • If only one feature in the PartBody: no restriction, the feature can be deleted
  • If there are several features in the PartBody
    • If the second feature is negative: the feature cannot be deleted.
    • If the second feature is positive: the feature can be deleted.

You can select and delete multiple feature in an instance.

All the features of the PartBody are selected: no restriction, the features can be deleted.

The first feature is not in the selected list: no restriction, the features can be deleted.

Only some features of the PartBody are selected

Features follow each other: the rule is to check the first feature after the list of selected feature:


  • If it is positive : the list can be deleted
  • If it is negative : the list can not be deleted

Feature do not follow each other: only the features that follow the first feature are taken into account to respect the following rule: "Part Body must not be negative".
