Remove Hybrid Parts

Detaching a part of a hybrid document separates the part and makes it an independent document.

Note:
  • You can only remove a part from a hybrid document that is in the Released state.

  • In Meridian 2021 PowerWeb, you can delete hybrid parts from locked documents if Site Cache Mode or no mode is selected. Deleting hybrid parts from locked documents does not work if ActiveX Compatibility Mode is selected.

ClosedPowerWeb Procedures

Use these steps for PowerWeb. In the 2022 release, we made it easier to remove hybrid parts.

To remove a part from a hybrid document:

  1. Display the property pages for the hybrid document for which you want to detach parts.

  2. Click Hybrid Parts in the upper-right corner of the page.

    The Hybrid Parts page appears, listing the names of the hybrid parts attached to the selected document.

  3. Right-click the hybrid part you want to remove.

    The context menu opens.

  4. Select Edit > Delete.

    A dialog box opens, asking you to confirm your choice.

  5. Click OK.

    The hybrid part is removed.

ClosedPowerUser Procedures

Use these steps for PowerUser.

To remove a part of a hybrid document:

  1. Right-click the part document that you want to detach.

  2. Select Detach Part from the shortcut menu that appears.

    If only one document type is configured for the file type that you are detaching, that document type is assigned to the detached document. If more than one document type is configured, a dialog box appears in which you can select from among the document types.
