Can't delete power symbols

Schematic Library Symbols
1

Hi,

Can anyone help shed light on why I would not be able to remove power symbols (GND, 3.3) from my schematic anymore when I could this morning?

Also, when I drag the power symbols there is a line drawn from the symbol back to the pin I want to remove it from, have I inadvertently enabled some kind of locking?

Thanks in advance.

I am not aware that locking parts in the schematic would even be possible in KiCad. I also checked the menu’s and the properties of a symbol and I did not see it either.

Can you share a simplified version of your project with just those power symbol and something else (such as a decoupling capacitor or whatever) so others can have a look at it?

Thanks, turns out to be user error, I was trying to delete it via the “3.3v” label, not the connection.
Arguably it could work that way, but my bad.
