What happens when I delete a study object?
The way that study objects are deleted depends on whether they are instances or links. If you delete a study object that has been copied as a link, only the selected study object is deleted. No copies of it are deleted.
Type | Description | Appearance in the Project Explorer |
---|---|---|
Instance | An actual study object in a study |
Study objects that are instances appear in study object containers. For example, all study elements in the Elements container are instances. |
Link | A link to a study object in a study. |
Study objects that are links appear as children in study object containers. For example, if a study event is a child of a study element in the Elements container, the study element is an instance, and the study event is a link. |
