Cannot delete elements

I am also having this issue. The delete icon is greyed out and I am working on my surface pro with a surface pen, so using delete on the keyboard is not feasible. 

What about clicking the layer and using the Delete key on your keyboard? Does that work?

Hi @default31708655vi6uh5 

Sorry to hear things are not going smoothly for you.

Are you getting any errors when trying to delete? Have you tried the right-click menu/the backspace key?

Are you able to delete assets from other projects? Are your elements unlocked?

Hi, does this help: https://community.adobe.com/t5/adobe-express-bugs/delete-option/idc-p/14019402#M660
