Deleting faces

You can delete individual faces of a boundary polygon that consists of several faces.

1.  Make sure that the Permit interactive editing of geometries option is selected (Creating a boundary).

2.  Mark the desired network object (Marking network objects in the network).

3.  Right-click the desired face.

4.  On the shortcut menu, click Delete face.

Tip: Alternatively, to delete a face, click it. Then hold down the Ctrl key (all vertices of the face are grayed out and a minus sign is displayed at the mouse pointer) and click the face again.

5.  Delete further faces, if required.

Depending on the network object type, the following applies:

• In case of zones, territories, and polygonal POIs, the changes are applied immediately and the step ends here.
• For main nodes, main zones and restricted traffic areas a query opens in some cases. Proceed with the next step.

6.  Confirm with Yes.

The partial network objects (nodes, zones or links) that lie within the boundary are allocated to the higher-level network object (main node, main zone, or restricted traffic area) and the new boundary is applied.

Notes: If you want to create the main node, the main zone, or the restricted traffic area with a boundary but without allocated partial network objects, click No in the query. You can also allocate the partial network objects later (Allocating nodes to one or multiple main nodes and Editing main node attributes in the list view). If you want to delete all faces of a boundary polygon at the same time, during step 4, click Delete all faces on the shortcut menu.
