Hi Caren

Thanks for reaching out on the Lucid community. You can delete a swimlane by right-clicking it and selecting "Delete" or by selecting it and hitting your Delete or Backspace key. If you would like to increase or decrease the number of lanes in a swimlane you can do so with the up or down arrows circled below. Hope this helps!

Lucidchart is super intuitive! However I also found deleting a swim lane to be quite the opposite. Simple right click in the area where you'd write the title of the swim lane and select 'delete'

Really bad! wasted 15m on this. If I have to search to do a simple function it's not the best solution!

Hi Frank

Thank you for keeping this conversation going and apologies for any confusion! You have a couple of options when it comes to deleting a lane. Once you select the chart right click and select "Remove Lane" or you can navigate to the right contextual panel (which should open upon clicking the swimlane) and change the amount of lanes you would like. 

Hope this helps! Check out our Swimlanes Lucid Help Desk article for a bit more help with this. Cheers!

As you can see, I KEEP clicking remove lane, yet for some reason it does not go away. This is for every single one of my projects. It is very frustrating and quite honestly hilarious how a program so intuitive like lucid struggles with something I would imagine to be so easy. (simple backspace functionality)
