Summary0004406: Delete object with consumers
DescriptionWhen you select an object in the pipeline with consumers (downstream components) the Delete button is still active. If you click it, you get the following message in the output window:

Active source has consumers, cannot delete

The error make sense (to us developers) but the delete option should never have been made available in the first place. When an object in the pipeline is selected that has consumers (or is otherwise disqualified from being deleted) the Delete button should be disabled (grayed out).

I believe this one is fixed. At least for my test case. If you still have this problem, reopen the bug and give me an example.

I still get the same behavior.

1. Create a Sphere source.
2. Add a filter to the Sphere source (e.g. clip).
3. Click on the Sphere source in the pipeline browser.
4. Look at the object inspector. The Delete button is active (it should be grayed out). When you click on it, you get the message "Cannot remove source with consumers."

Sorry, I thought you were talking about the delete item on the context menu. I'll get the button fixed right away.

The delete button on the object panel is only enabled when the object has no consumers.

Make a source and connect a filter to it.
hit the delete button on the filter panel, and it takes you back to the source's panel with the delete button still disabled. It should be enabled.

The delete button enabled state now listens for pipeline connection changes as well as selection changes.
