7.1 uses the Admin Tool - not the Developer Studio which is an eclipse environment. What you could do in the Admin Tool has not been replicated 1 for 1 in the DS. Some of the functionality could be enhanced, some not present, and some added. So you can't expect it to work the same. You could try and expect better, but expecting it to work exactly with the same points and clicks is not reasonable.
I was looking for a way to do it in the DS - not the old Admin Tool. I may have a chance to try some of the tricks described by Rafael and Fred later today.

As soon as you do that, all elements were gone! This trick was shared with me by my Remedy Guru. I was much frustrated before I knew this. I will have to try to test same with 8.0.

The thing is my form is not that big that justifies creation, export to XML, edit XML, import as the time taken to do that would be more or less the time taken to do all those dozens of Remove Selected clicks. I did think of that option (see my last line on original post) but didn't attempt it as it would have not saved me much in terms of time. But if there were keyboard shortcuts to edit it, that would have been awesome. This might be a good candidate for a plugin to alter the behavior in the Dev Studio.

Even I have found this very annoying as well many a times.

The annoyance was that I could not find an easy way to pick more than one element at a time to remove and had to click on them individually, and Remove Selected. I tried various other tricks that seem to work on a dev studio, such as holding the period key down while making selections, or holding the CNTRL key down and what not. Nothing seemed to give me the ability to select more than one at a time and remove. So it was time consuming and a operation that I could have taken 2 minutes to create was literally taking me 15 or thereabouts. If anyone has figured a way around this, I would appreciate it. The only thing I can think of is saving it all as is and then exporting the WSDL and editing its xml definition. I haven't yet tried that option though as I didn't want to attempt R&D at a customer site. Any tips would be appreciated..
