title: Deleting Objects
---
<p>
Within the Editor window (and to some extent within the Mixer window too),
there are several techniques for <dfn>deleting</dfn> objects (regions,
control points, and more).
</p>
<h2>Using the mouse and keyboard</h2>
<p>
Select the object(s) and then press the <kbd>Del</kbd> key.
This does <strong>not</strong> put the deleted object(s) into the cut
buffer, so they cannot be pasted elsewhere.
</p>
<h2>Using normal cut and paste shortcuts</h2>
<p>
Select the object(s) and then press <kbd class="mod1">x</kbd>. This puts
the deleted object(s) into the cut buffer so that they could be pasted
elsewhere.
</p>
<h2>Using just the mouse</h2>
<p>
By default, <kbd class="mouse">Shift Right</kbd> will delete the
clicked-upon object. Like the Del key, this does <strong>not</strong>
put the deleted object(s) into the cut buffer.
</p>
<p>
The modifier and mouse button used for this can be controlled via
<kbd class="menu">Edit &gt; Preferences &gt; User Interaction &gt;
Delete using ...</kbd>. Any modifier and mouse button combination can
be used.
</p>
