to my knowledge it is not possible to delete a single scalar.
Thanks for the confirmation. I'm also wondering whether this will always be like this or if it would be a trivial feature to add.
The method to get rid of a scalar is to clear the subpatch and recreate everything.
Yeah. It's not very elegant and gets expensive pretty quickly. I was wondering about alternative strategies, like moving non-used scalars out-of-the-way and later re-use them. It's cumbersome to implement, but probably less drastic than the clear-all-and-rebuild method. My goal is to build GUIs with ds that are fully functional without requiring switching into edit mode. I'd be interested in hearing about similar success (or failure) stories.

Hey all
Following up a thread from 2011: https://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2011-04/088306.html
I would like to know whether it is impossible to delete a specific scalar, by pointer. If so, why is that? Does it use a design that makes it difficult to allow this? To my untrained eye there is no apparent reason why it is possible by editing the GUI graphically/manually, but not per message.
