[ARCHIVED] [ARCHIVED] Can't Delete an embedded video from Canvas Studio

[sailingmoore]

I embedded in a page a video created in Canvas studio. I can't delete it unless I delete the whole page.

Can anybody know how to delete it? Please help!

Hello @sailingmoore and @tsluder ...

The way to delete a Studio video from a content page of your course is quite simple.  When editing the page in your course, place your cursor at the bottom right corner of the Studio video.  This should place a blinking text cursor on your screen along the right side edge of the Studio video.  Hit your "Backspace" key on your keyboard, and you should be able to remove the Studio video from your page without deleting any other content on the page.  Be sure to save your changes when done.

I hope this helps both of you.  Sing out if you have any questions...thanks!  Take care, stay safe, and be well.

Thank you very much @Chris_Hofer. I will give it a try. I found out that going to html editor, and carefully deleting the code for the video works. But your suggestion sounds easier. Thanks!

This did not work. When I tried to hit the backspace and delete keys, the video would not disappear.

Didn't work for me either.  Frustrating. There should be an easy way to do this.

I had the same problem. My solution, which may not be the best solution, was to go into the HTML viewer and delete the video code.

The clue to go to the bottom right hand corner helped me. I couldn't see my cursor there, but a lot of clicking and pressing Delete in the bottom right corner finally got it to go. Trying to delete from any other location did not work. Yes, this should be MUCH easier to do.

I tried the above to delete an old lecture video from my Canvas Page, but it didn't work either.
