Deleting a number of things and want to wander around picking them as you go. Hold the Delete key down and pick away.

Thought I'd repeat this one since I take it for granted now. I don't remember who first brought it to our attention but thanks again.

I suppose everyone knows this anyway, but just in case . . . .

Last night I found myself doing lots of deleting of furniture and bits in a scheme when "SUDDENLY" I realised instead or clicking everything and then deleting, that if I held the Delete key down they would just delete as I go . . hmmm . .

I am hoping that I have just helped the workflow of at least one person out there, cause it is so obvious! ha . .

Hi

You mean that while holding the DEL key, you then click every object.

best regards

Nice trick Lashers.. Saves me a lot of right clicking. Works as you said in Revit but tried it on my inbox for email and it deletes everything at once, not what I wanted, but very useful in Revit.

sweet! of course...there are still people out there that don't even know they can use the DELETE key to erase an object. for them, there is no hope.
