How do I delete controls and containers from the form?

December CTP

In this release, the only way to delete controls and containers from the form is to switch to XAML view and delete the corresponding XAML, from the opening tag to the closing:


Some basic functions, like deleting controls, copying and pasting, etc. must be bound to standard IDE commands that are managed by Visual Studio. The command infrastructure and command implementations must be in place to make these functions work. At the time of the December CTP, Visual Studio integration is largely incomplete and thus these commands do not function.

Select the control(s) you want to delete, press the Del key, right click and select Delete, or select Delete from the Edit main menu.
