If you no longer need an object or source, you can delete it in the Contents Editor. You may have imported several sources for testing purposes and after you decide which version you want, you can delete the rest. When you delete an object or a source in the Contents Editor, you are deleting the object or source from your project. This will not automatically delete the associated converted audio file from your project .cache folder. To delete the orphan file, you need to clear your audio cache. For more information about how to manage these orphan files, refer to Clearing your cache.
To delete an object in the Contents Editor:
Select the icon for the object that you want to delete.
Do one of the following:
Press the Delete key.
Right-click the object, and from the shortcut menu, select Delete.
The selected object or source is removed from the Contents Editor and the Audio tab of the Project Explorer.

Deleting an object from the Contents Editor deletes the object from the project. When you remove an item from the playlist or the Switches list, you are not deleting the object. It is simply removed from the list. |
