Delete button not answering on GH only on Rhino

Hi guys,

When I select a bunch of components on grasshopper and press delete it will say "delete" on the Rhino tab but won't delete on grasshopper.

For the delete to work on GH I have to go to the edit folder each time...

It's a simple problem and I am sure there's a simple solution...

cheers,

Arthur

I must say, I am still having this issue even using 8.0051.

Can't delete using the button :(

Hi David,

Really sorry to come back with this issue, I am now having troubles when hovering on components (output and input): Grasshopper does not display anything when doing so.

Deleting, copy pasting is also only happening in Rhino not GH when GH is open.

Sometimes I get lucky and it works but I still can't understand the pattern.

Hope this is solvable.

Many thanks,

Arthur

Have the same -delete glitch. But I just found a pattern, which solves the problem for me. (Windows7 x64 Rhino 4)

1. Click - Show desktop button on taskbar (Rhino and Grasshopper window minimizes)

2. Click one more time - Show desktop button (Rhino window restores, but Grasshopper window is not)

3. Just double click Grasshopper window to maximize it, and the problem disappears.

That's the first time anyone found a way to explicitly fix the problem. Interesting.

I've been using Fn + Delete - works and I've gotten used to it.

FYI - this is on a bootcamped Mac keyboard, in Rhino 4 and 5. I figured this issue was just a problem amongst the Mac people, since on my office PC (desktop) the delete key works in GH ...

also noticed that very rarely and after long working sessions some keyboard command always respond to rhino and not any more to the grasshopper window - no matter which is active.

like it was said above restarting both solves the problem.
