Cut Command

Use the Cut command from the Edit menu to delete the selected controls from your painted form and copy them to the clipboard.

The Cut command is not enabled until at least one painted control is selected.

Deleting a control causes the corresponding property of the class to be removed, which in turn marks as uncompiled any methods using or referencing that property.

If a selected control has children, the child controls are also cut.

To select a control or group of controls, perform one of the following actions

To select one control, simply click it.
If you want to select a group of controls, perform one of the following actions.
- After selecting the first control, hold down the Shift key and then click the other controls that you want to include in the group.
- Click and drag a box around the controls that you want to select.

To activate the cut operation, perform one of the following actions

Select the Cut command from the Edit menu
Press Ctrl+X

The selected controls are then removed from your form.

When you use the Cut command, the selected controls are copied to the clipboard from which they can be pasted elsewhere on the current form, or into another form. The clipboard is not saved between JADE sessions.

You cannot cut a control that is inherited. The Cut command is also disabled if there is an inherited control in the group of controls that you have selected.
