Removing bookmarks

This section will demonstrate how to remove the bookmarks that have been created.

1. In the Bookmarks view, select JanesFile.txt (the second bookmark we created) and do one of the following:

   • Click the Delete button on the view's toolbar.
   • From the bookmark's context menu choose delete.
   • Hit the Delete key on the keyboard.

   Notice that the bookmark is removed from the Bookmarks view.

   

2. There should be one remaining bookmark. This bookmark is associated with a line in the file JanesFile.txt. There are two other approaches to removing this bookmark.
   • Use Remove Bookmark in the marker bar of the JanesFile.txt editor. Remember, Add Bookmark was used in the marker bar when the bookmark was first created.
     
   • Delete the bookmark (as was done above) by using Delete from the bookmark's popup menu in the Bookmarks view.

   Here is the second approach. 

3. Ensure there is an editor open on JanesFile.txt. 

   Although the editor doesn't actually need to be open, the editor update will be viewable as the bookmark is deleted.

4. In the Bookmarks view, select JanesFile.txt (the remaining bookmark). Click the Delete button on the view's toolbar. Notice that the bookmark is removed from the Bookmarks view and the JanesFile.txt editor.
