Hey everyone,

Model 100 user here (macOs 0.13.2 Chrysalis).

For some reason I can’t figure out how to delete a layer in Chrysalis. I’ve tried ‘Edit → Delete’ while a layer is selected but nothing happens.

I assume I’m missing something extremely obvious.

Thanks in advance!

Select another Transparent unused layer, such as #8, and copy it.  
Then select the layer you are trying to delete, and paste this layer on top of it.  
This will clear all keys and make it a blank layer.
