Can't delete objects

[Mick_Berg]

I have some objects in my TC3 route that I cannot delete, or do anything with, for that matter. They are clones of Tafweb houses, with the smoke removed. If I put down a new instance of the object, I can delete it with no problem, but the ones that have been in the route for some time are "set in stone". Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Mick Berg.

I see that this thread has been viewed 67 times but no replies. Am I really stuck with these houses that I don't want?
Thanks,

You could try removing them by cut and paste, click on "objects" in the tools and draw a square around an area that has no objects. Then click paste and you should be able to use this paste square to remove any objects inside.
Hope this works for this problem.

Deleting Objects

I had a similar problem with a level crossing. Even after "disconecting" all the rails and roads I still couldn't delete the crossing.
More by some good luck than management I tried deleting the texture on the base board (ending up with a blank board under the crossing) - hey presto I managed to delete the crossing!!

Good luck.

What about removing the items/house from your TC3 CMP database? Copy them to a safe location for use later (maybe as a CDP), then delete them from TC3. Start up TC3 and load your layout, the layout should tell you that there are missing items. Once the layout is loaded go to the menu and select "Delete Missing Content" (whatever), and see if that resolves the problem. Once they are removed from your layout, you can then import the content/houses back into CMP for use later on.

Hope this helps.

Kuid No.

Get the kuid number and delete the kuid from your database. Just take it out and move it somehwere else, then you can always get it back.

Sometimes difficult to remove assets can be removed by using a different delete tool. For example, for you cloned houses, experiment with the spline removal tool or even the track removal tool.

Thanks for all the replies. I found out that I was being a complete dummy and the houses were a spline. Then there was no problem deleting them.
