, the circle is deleted but the center point

and radius point remain.
If you tap

C

when no

object is selected, a list of
objects appears. Tap on the
one you want to delete. (If
you don’t want to delete an
object, press

J

to close

the list.) If other objects are
dependent on the one you
have selected for deletion, you will be asked to confirm your
intention. Tap

to do so, otherwise tap

.

Note that points you add to an object once the object has
been defined are cleared when you clear the object. Thus if
you place a point (say D) on a circle and delete the circle, the

circle and D are deleted, but the defining points—the center
and radius points—remain.

Clearing all

objects

To clear the app of all geometric objects, press

SJ

will be asked to confirm your intention to do so. Tap
