Erasing Center Marks

Erasing Center Marks

Erasing Center Marks

(OP)
I am a new SolidWorks user and am making my first attempt at a drawing.  I am running into a small but annoying problem regarding the display of center marks.  When I inserted the initial view, the center marks were inserted as well.  I have since found where to shut that option off so that it doesn't display them when the view is inserted.  Now though I am stuck with the center marks that were inserted and I can't find out where, if anywhere, to delete, erase, or just make them go away.  How do I get rid of them without having to reinsert the view?

Thanks for any help,
Ben

Click on them and hit the delete key.

I knew it had to be something amazingly simple!  Thank you for your help.

RE: Erasing Center Marks

If you hold down the delete key you can keep picking
objects...until you miss that is, then you gotta start
over...

RE: Erasing Center Marks

You don't have to start over, if you keep holding the Ctrl key down. You will have to unpick the last item you picked to keep from deleteing it though.

You can also do a window and select all and delete all centermarks.

RE: Erasing Center Marks

Use the filter option to select only center marks, then you can window select the entire drawing and only get center marks, then hit the delete key.

RE: Erasing Center Marks

Whoops...didn't mean to say start over...but restart
from where you missed...Dang, I knew those filters were
good for something...hardly ever use them...until now...

Thx
