Is there a way to change the settings so the Delete key deletes components not the backspace key? Thanks Tom

Hi dan, I’m using the same WIP. It’s an iMac, I will post full specs tomorrow when I’m back in the office! Tom

fwiw, delete key deletes components for me as well. (ie- works as expected)

Hi Dan, iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2015) 3.3 GHz Intel Core i5 16 GB 1867 MHz DDR3 If it helps in Rhino itself the “delete” does delete, so it is only in GH where only back space is deleting. Could it be related to British Keyboards? Thanks Tom

Thanks. Just out of curiosity, does hitting fn+delete work to delete components on your keyboard?

Apologies for the delay, I have tried fn + delete and it still does not delete!?

@will are you running macOS in en-GB with an Apple Keyboard purchased in the UK? Do you see this behavior in Grasshopper?

@dan I have the Magic Keyboard (without num pad), so no delete key.

Hi Tom-

delete deletes components for me. I just tested it on the latest RhinoWIP (5E334w).

What is your hardware setup? Laptop? Desktop?
