Step 3. Click OK.

What happens next depends on the following scenarios:

Scenario 1: The Issue contains no assigned files.

Before the Issue can be deleted, these files first need to be removed or transferred to another Issue.

Step 3. Click Show Objects.

A detailed list showing the found objects appears.

Step 4. Do one of the following:

• Choose an action from the Action list for each individual object.
• Choose an action from the Action list at the bottom of the page to apply this action to all objects.

The actions to choose from are:

• Delete. Deletes the file.

• Unassign. (Not available for layouts and placed objects) Unassigns the file from the Issue that it is currently assigned to.
• None. Performs no action on the file.
