Rules for Removing from Workspace
Consider these rules when using the Remove action:
You can select a generic or an instance to remove from a workspace.
When you select an instance, the generic is collected as a required dependent. When you select a generic, the instances are collected as well.
When you remove a generic or instance, any modified instances from that design table are also removed.
Removing a generic also removes the CATIA V5 model file and its design table from the workspace local directory.
Removing a generic CATIA V5 CAD document from a workspace attempts to close the generic CATIA V5 model and any instances currently open in the CATIA V5 session.
