Removing a Condition from an entire Topic

Hello, all:

I have not been able to figure out how to remove a conditional build tag from large sections of a Topic, or as needed at the moment, from the entire Topic.

I have always had to VERY carefully, very precisely select a line or a paragraph, not one space before or after it, and right-click to get the context menu that offers the Apply Conditional Build child dropdown (terminology?), and then deselect the tag I was trying to un-apply.

I need to be able to do this to large swaths of content in general, and in particular, I am currently unable to remove Conditions from even a single cell in a Table!

Any help would be most appreciated.


Thanks,

Lew Yedwab

Look at the properties of the topic. Specifically, the Advanced tab.

Sorry everyone; I got it. In case anyone else needs to know:

Get to the Topic Properties dialog for the entire Topic, and to the Advanced tab. There, you may remove all the Conditional Build tags present in the Topic.

There may be further Conditional Build Tag editing or manipulation capabilities in that dialog/tab, but I did not have time to experiment with them. I was however, able to delete all Conditional Build Tags from that Topic.

Thanks to anyone who may have answered already!

See what I mean? My discovery preceded Captiv8r's helpful reply, and I didn't see it as I was posting.

Thanks again.

Actually, I wonder if this is the kind of thing that's going to get me a bad rep on the Forums!
