Delete Shelve Set WITHOUT Unshelving?

Post by AjarnMark » Fri Jan 15, 2010 12:16 pm

Is there a way to delete a Shelve Set without unshelving it? I don't see any option to delete a shelve set other than the checkbox to automatically delete after unshelving, but the shelve set is no longer valid and I don't want to retrieve it over my current work.

Version 2.0.1.18729

You should be able to delete from the Find Shelvesets dialog using the right-click menu.

OK, that works. For some reason, it never occurred to me to try right-click. Would be nice if those options were in a main menu somewhere, too.

I see your point, but part of the problem with that idea comes from the expanded version of the dialog. If you have selections in both lists, what selection would the main menu commands operate on? It became a problem of some lack of findability vs possible confusion or clutter to avoid that confusion. I'll log a bug to take another look at ways to alleviate the issue.

A few ideas...
  • Put the menu only on the collapsed view.
  • Put a button on the Details view.
  • Update the Help documentation to include the information.
