Deleting perspectives

You delete a perspective when it is no longer necessary. If a page or item is still assigned to a perspective when it is deleted, the page or item is not re-assigned to another perspective. If the page belongs to more than one perspective, it continues to belong to those perspectives.

You must be a page group or Portal administrator to delete a perspective.

To delete a perspective:

  1. Access the Navigator and click Page Groups.

  2. Click Contents next to the name of the page group from which you want to delete a perspective.

    Note: If your perspective is shared across multiple page groups, click Contents next to Shared Objects. You must be a portal administrator or have Manage privileges to delete shared objects.

  3. Click Perspectives. If the list of perspectives is very long, use Find to go directly to the desired perspective.

  4. If you are deleting a child perspective, click Sub-Perspectives next to the parent perspective until you see the child perspective that you want to delete.

  5. Next to the perspective that you want to delete, click Delete. A confirmation message appears.

  6. Click Yes.
