# Deleting a Group of Elements

> Delete a group of elements in ABBYY FormDesigner using the Delete command, and learn how to remove the group while keeping the elements it contains.

To delete a **group of elements**:

1. Select a **group of elements** you wish to delete
2. Select the Delete command (**Edit →** Delete or shortcut menu)

<Warning>
  If you are deleting elements that are part of group, the group will also be deleted. To delete the group but retain the elements, make sure that only the group is selected, not the elements.
