Hi
Created a document in Pages, added some shapes, saved document, now a few days later want to delete certain shapes from that document but cannot select shape to remove it. Read Pages Help, searched online but cannot find any information on how to do it, so, please how do I delete a shape?
iMac (27-inch, Late 2012), OS X Yosemite (10.10)
Normally, a mouse pointer is an I-Beam when you move it around in a Pages document with no objects. When it crosses over an object, it changes into a black, northwest pointer. It will do this for shapes, and text boxes alike, grouped or ungrouped, and even if the object is invisible. When the mouse pointer changes, click once, and the object is selected. Then the delete key.

Helps if you tell us what version of Pages.

Thanks for that, I had made the mistake of left/right clicking inside the shape, not on the edge, now works perfectly!
