How do I delete nodes?
It depends what you are deleting, but almost always the cleanest way to delete nodes is using "hard delete" which clears the entire node at once. You can hard delete using the following methods:
- Keyboard: Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+Backspace
- Mouse: Right-click the node icon >
Delete
- If you delete a node, it goes to the trash.
If you delete a node that is referenced one or more times in the graph, the node goes to the trash and the references will have a little trash icon next to them.
If you want the node and all references deleted, use the command Hard delete including references
If deleting the node was a mistake, you can click on the trash icon and resurrect the node through one of the references.
If you delete a reference, it goes to the trash and the node it referred to and other references will still exist and not be trashed.
