Diagram pop-up menu

[Kevin G. Watson]

Hi dudes

Have just discovered a strange sorta error.  Elsewhere, someone was asking how to delete an element from the model, by using the elements pop menu on a diagram.

The behaviour of the delete menu item, and the Cntrl + Del shortcut are not the same.  The menu item just deletes the item from the diagram, the same as using the Delete key.  Cntrl + Delete, removes the item from the model, and all diagrams.

Is this by design?  If so I can't understand the rational.
Perhaps you would only make the mistake once, but man thats a really nasty learning technique...

Is it possible to modify the pop menu so as to correct this.... it would also help if I could add a menu item so as to provide both delete behaviours.

How many folks have fallen foul of this?

Are there any other examples you've come accross?

Stay tough

ps... where or how do I report this?

Oops..... It was very very early.

But of course the pop up menu does not have Ctrl + Delete...... it very sensibly has Cntrl + D

I'm going into hiding. I did send my boss an email.... oh dear.... poor Ewu, I bet he wanted 'from model if'

Stay tough

PS.  I was rite about Cntrl + Delete tho, it does delete from the model.... but oh dear I feel silly....
