   Step-by-step instructions :

1 . To invoke Remove Piecemarks :

Method 1 : Click the Remove Piecemarks icon, which is pictured above. The icon can be taken from the group named ' Edit -- Edit Piecemarks ' ( Modeling ) or ' Edit -- Edit Piecemarks ' ( Drawing Editor ) and placed on a toolbar (classic) or the ribbon (lightning).

Method 2 : If " Modeling layout style " or " Drawing Editor layout style " is ' Classic ', you can use the menu system to choose Edit > Edit piecemarks > Remove Piecemarks .

Method 3, 4 or 5 : Remove Piecemarks can also be configured to be invoked using a keyboard shortcut , the context menu , or a mode . For the lightning interface, this configuration is done using Customize Interface .

2 . A selection window opens. On it is a list of all piecemarks (both user and system ) which have been assigned to members in the 3D model. Each member is listed its member number [in brackets] and piecemark .

[1] C_1  [2] C_2  [3] C_2  [4] C_2 [5] C_3 [5] C_3	" Hide ... " and " Show All " can be used to adjust which classes of members are shown on the selection list. By default, members with frozen piecemarks are not shown.
Tip: The " Print " button outputs the list that is shown on this selection dialog by default. That is, it prints the list of all piecemarks that can be removed. These are all piecemarks except frozen piecemarks .

2a : Select the member(s) you want to remove particular user or system piecemark(s) from, then press the " OK " button.

3 . Member details associated with the members whose piecemarks you have removed are deleted at the time the piecemarks are removed. Those members will receive system piecemarks during the Assigning Piecemarks phase of Process and Create Solids. This phase can take place, for example, when you press " OK " on the member's edit window. After a member has been assigned a new piecemark, you can auto detail it again.
