ClearContents

Applied Parameters: None

Summary

This command is used to clear the content of one or more selected (and editable) cells, in the component definitions region of the active Component Library document.

Access

This command can be accessed from the Component Library Editor, when configured in Batch Editor mode, by:

• Selecting one or more editable cells, in the definitions region, and choosing the Edit » Clear Contents command from the main menus.
• Right-clicking over an editable cell (or a cell in a selection of editable cells), in the definitions region, and choosing the Clear Contents command from the context menu.
• Selecting one or more editable cells, in the definitions region, and using the Delete keyboard shortcut.

Use

After launching the command, the current contents of the selected cell(s) will be cleared, leaving the cell(s) empty.

Tips

1. If the Component Library document references a Component Template, bear in mind the following:
   1. If a parameter is marked as Read Only in the template, then you cannot clear the content of the applicable cell for that parameter.
   2. If a parameter is marked as Required in the template, clearing the content of the applicable cell for that parameter will cause the cell to be highlighted with a red border - alerting you to the fact that a value is required.
