How to delete automation data? Can't seem to figure it out.

New to drawing automation lines on tracks. Started with volume, then did some panning, and then got crazy with a Bus Send automation. It goofed things up and I can't figure out how to remove it!

I found a remove automation menu command but it killed ALL automation data.

I can't Undo either as it has been too long since then to catch it.

I can't click on the line and hit delete because it just adds a new point to the line.

I'm sure it's simple - any ideas?

You can go to (arrange menu) track>track automation and select delete visible automation from selected track.

Don't remember the menu path in Logic 8, but I think the automation menu was in one of the top global menus.

You can also hold option and triple click in the automation lane to bring up a dialogue that allows you delete just the automation of the current type.

Open the keycommand editor and enter the word "Automation" in Spotlight - all assignable key commands concerning automation will show up - assign keycommands to "delete currently visible automation" and "delete all automation of selected track"
