Use Delete
to delete a selection after it has been selected using one of the selection tools.
This function differs from Cut because it does not place the stitches on the Clipboard. Therefore stitches that have been Deleted cannot be pasted into another design (although Undo can be used if the wrong stitches are deleted).
Use Delete Color on the Design panel to remove a color from the design.
