I'm a newbie. I am trying to remove an object/shape from a mindmap. I cannot find any way to do it. In fact if I try to move it the whole map moves. I've looked the help center. No luck!

Hey Peter

Thank you for posting in the Lucid Community. You should be able to delete a shape by single clicking the shape and pressing delete on the keyboard. Here's a short video that will show you the basics of a mind map that should help out along the way.

I would like to clarify--did you import data to create this mind map or did you create it from scratch? I would also like to know if you have used a template to create it or by using the shape library of mind map shapes. 

Hoping this helps--thank you for your help and patience as we get this sorted!
