That's a good nomination for a product upgrade. In BP mode the delete really should be "Delete all overlays".
You should put that in the communities - I'd upvote it. Even though I know it's only going to delete the overlays I REALLY dislike clicking the delete. I normally make a backup first just due to paranoia/experience (pick one :) William Rentfrow wrentf...@stratacominc.com Office: 715-204-3061 or 701-232-5697x25 Cell: 715-498-5056 -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Kemes, Lisa A DLA CTR INFORMATION OPERATIONS Sent: Monday, April 27, 2015 9:23 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: How to - Remove all Overlays from a Form Then when in Best Practice, can the Delete be called Delete Overlay? That seems so easy to do and assures us that we would be deleting the overlay and not the form. Sometimes I'm in Base and mean to be in Best Practice (doing research or something).

This being the reason there is no need to label the options explicitly for overlay as a person who is dealing with developer studio know what he/she is doing and what is the significance of each mode.

I am glad to see I am not alone in thinking there should be difference verbiage. I mentioned it in either the 7.6.03 (before it was pulled from that version) or 7.6.04 beta; before this features was GA but it went forward as is.

It's really scary when I delete an overlay using this, because I'm always scared that I'm going to be deleting the form. But if it's overlaid, then you will only be deleting the overlay of the form.
