Deleting UML diagram elements

You can delete UML elements that you no longer require from either a specific diagram or from an entire project.
You must have a UML diagram open in the diagram editor.

If you delete elements from a diagram, you remove the elements from the diagram; however, the elements remain in the project and are still displayed in the Project Explorer view. If you delete elements from a project, you permanently remove the elements from the diagram and the entire project.

To delete a UML diagram element:

  1. In the diagram editor, right-click a diagram element.
  2. Complete one of the following steps:
    • To delete the element from only the diagram, click Delete from Diagram.
    • To delete the element from the entire project, click Delete from Model.
