Deleting, Returning and Moving Blocks in LEGO SPIKE Prime Word Blocks software Pro Preview

To delete a block, we have two options:

1. With the Del button.
2. By moving the block in the palette to the side.

To delete a block with the Del or Delete button, we need to click on it and press the button on the keyboard. This button will always work on the last block you clicked on.

To delete a block with a move, we need to grab it and move it back to the side in the palette, no matter where. Be careful! When we drag a block followed by other blocks, we also drag all the blocks below it and risk deleting a large part of our program.

Another way to delete a block in the middle of several blocks is to move it along with the blocks below it, then grab the blocks below it and return them to the original program. Now, we have isolated the block we want to delete, and we can move it to the side in the palette. We can also use this trick if we want to just move a block instead of deleting it, and it looks like this:

Sometimes, we delete a large part of our program without wanting to or move it and don't remember how it was originally. The tool that fixes such situations is Ctrl+Z, also called "Undo". If you need to undo something, click the Ctrl button and then Z. That undoes an action we did. Pressing it again returns a second action, and we can go on like this probably longer than we ever need to.
