Deleting Elements

Elements may be deleted from a message in various ways:

1. In tree-view, an element can be right-clicked to display a pop-up menu of relevant options. If deletion of the element is valid in terms of the assigned schema (i.e. if the element is optional or part of a repeating collection), then Delete option will be enabled in the pop-up menu.

2. If no ASN.1 schema is assigned, any element in the message can be deleted by right-clicking the element in tree-view and selecting the Delete option.

3. If a SEQUENCE or SET containing optional elements is edited, check boxes will appear next to each of the elements in the edit window:

Elements can be removed from the message by unchecking the boxes and clicking Update. (Note: Update will be enabled as soon as the state of any element checkbox is changed).

4. The number of elements in a SEQUENCE OF item may be edited via a counter box:

Selecting a smaller number of elements than what currently exists will cause elements to be truncated from the message.
