Can't get rid of a graph

Post by Huodiwen »

Sometimes when I'm in the middle of adding pictures to a presentation I accidentally swipe the mouse and a graph appears, - and I can't get rid of it...

I guess I've stumbled on a short cut, but as it is, I can't go back to my original file and I have to delete it...

Advice appreciated.

My tip:
Select the graph (but not an object inside the graph) and hit DEL.


Can you upload your example ODF type example file here with that graph here?

I'm sorry I don't have the file with the graph in it. The problem was that I couldn't do anything with the file, once the graph appeared - I mean I couldn't get back to the original menu.

But I'll try your solution if it comes up again.

What actually is it? Because it is nothing to do with my presentation.

Thanks.

Tip:
Hit 'Esc - Esc - Esc - Esc' or click on an another object. Maybe the cursor is inside (on an inside part) of the graph object.
