How to delete expressions in NX11

How to delete expressions in NX11

How to delete expressions in NX11

(OP)
The new expression editor is a nice touch, but I can't see a way of deleting an unused expression. What am I missing?

RE: How to delete expressions in NX11

I don't have NX 11 up and running yet; but if you right click on the expression, is there a "delete" option in the pop up menu?

RE: How to delete expressions in NX11

If you right click on the expression you can delete. I am going to assume if the expression is used in other formulas you can't delete it until all of the where referenced is deleted. It should be greyed out at the bottom of your list.

I right clicked my heart out before posting the question in the first place. I've attached a simple file created long ago with expressions that were declared but not applied. Right clicking on the expression in the expression editor or the part navigator does not offer the option to delete it. I get the same result in a brand new file. This is NX 11.0.0.33 MP0, by the way.

RE: How to delete expressions in NX11

I just tested your file in NX11.0.0.33 MP0 and the expressions delete as SDETERS suggested if done in the right order.
