Deleting a model

About this task

A translated model consists of several Autodesk objects: the model files and a set of objects that constitute the bubble. The model files and the bubble can be deleted independently of each other.

Procedure

  1. Open the Model Detail dialog as above.
  2. From the Model tab, click the trash can (Permanent Delete) icon.
    A confirmation dialog is displayed with an option to also delete the bubble.
    Note: Autodesk provides no mechanism to list or search for bubbles, and IBM® Maximo® Real Estate and Facilities maintains no record of model or bubbles outside Autodesk Platform Services. Therefore, if you delete the model but not the bubble, you will not be able to later view or delete the bubble; however, existing references to the bubble continue to work. So, if a model has been associated with a building and then just the model is deleted, you can continue to use the viewer to display the model for that building. If the model file is later reloaded, it will automatically be associated with the existing bubble.
