I have created a Layout Container and within that container have inserted a Text element. I decided to delete the Text element and found that it is difficult to do without deleting the Layout Container that it is within. Procedure: I select the Text element, get the dashed box with the four arrows, white box at the upper left side. I select that box by right clicking and have selected "Cut" and "Delete" and both actions cause the entire Layout Container to delete. Is there a way of doing it that I am missing? I like the basic outlay of the Element Browser but it seems to be limited to display only qualities. If I could select an item within the Element Browser and delete it from there that would be nice. ....or am I missing something all together since I am new at using WSPainter? Thanks, Ted |

Maybe selecting the 'Show Object outlines' option helps you a bit seeing which element you selected, can be sometimes difficult when using layout containers. With the Element browser, I do it this way: Select the element in there, then click on its selected arrow icon in the website, then delete it using the delete key. |

Thanks Erik! By the way...when I select "Show Object Outlines" I don't see any thing different on my page except for when I actually click on the item I am wanting to work with...is this how it should work? Or should I immediately see outlines of all objects on that page regardless of whether I select or not? Thanks for your help, Ted |

You should see the outlines immediately of all objects. It's a bit strange that you doesn't. Maybe you could send me your file and I have a look at it. |
