Deleting Design Variables

To delete a design variable:

1. Remove all references to the variable in the design, including dependent variables.
2. Save the project to erase the command history.
3. Click Maxwell > Design Properties to display the Properties window with list of local variables.
4. Select the variable and click Remove and OK.

To remove all unused design variables (that is, not in the undo/redo command history):

1. Remove all references to unused variables in the design, including dependent variables.
2. Save the project to erase the command history.
3. Click Maxwell 3D or Maxwell 2D > Design Properties to display the Properties window with list of local variables.
4. Select the variable and click Remove and from the drop-down menu, select Remove All Unused and click OK. All variables that are not in use (not in undo/redo history) are removed.

To force remove all unused design variables:

1. Remove all references to unused variables in the design, including dependent variables.
2. Click Maxwell 3D or Maxwell 2D > Design Properties to display the Properties dialog with list of local variables.
3. Select the variable and click Remove and from the drop-down menu, select Force Remove All Unused and click OK. A warning message asks whether you want to apply changes in property window and clear undo/redo history. If you select No, nothing happens. If you select Yes, all unapplied changes are applied first, and undo/redo history is cleared; all variables that are not used are removed (including those that are only in undo/redo history before this command is executed).
