When to use

Use this action whenever you want to delete any of the following items.

You can delete:

assemblies
parts
3D construction geometry
features
workplanes
workplane sets
layouts
views
matchlines

Example

The following parameter sequence deletes the workplane called "/wp3".

DELETE_3D "/wp3"

All part and workplane names must be enclosed by double quotes (" ").

Rules for deleting features, parts and assemblies.

Deleting a feature does not affect the items that make up the feature.
A part may only be deleted if it does not share geometry with any other part or assembly.
When an assembly is deleted, all shared parts are deleted as well. To delete an assembly without deleting all shared parts, first delete all instances of those parts in that assembly.

To create a list of items to be deleted, open the Select Container and define your list items. For more details on the Select Container, refer to the section titled Select.

Error conditions

Edges may only be removed explicitly using the MERGE_3D action.
Faces may only be deleted implicitly, by deleting a body.
Points within bodies may only be removed as a side-effect of using the DELETE_3D or MERGE_3D actions.
