Re: gEDA-user: PCB delete problem

   Hi Stefan

   Thanks for your help. What worked finally was first selecting the
   rectangle and then pressing backspace.

   Regards Richard

     No problem with PCB 2009 snapshot.
     Note that we can use DEL or BACKSPACE keys, or the Delete tool
     (bones
     head). DEL key delete stuff under the mouse pointer, Backspace key
     deletes selected stuff, and Delete tool is used by clicking on
     elements.
     This is for GTK, should be similar for Lesstif/OpenMotif Gui. It may
     help to make other layers invisible before deleting from silk layer.
     I think you can redefine your keys, may that be your problem?
     I think you can not convert a filled rectangle into an unfilled one.
     We
     have silk lines, and we have rectangles. Use one of them.
