Resolved Can't Delete Post In Progress?

[margd]

This is a minor issue but I am unable to delete a post in progress. I must either "select all" and "cut" the message or I have to actually post it and then delete it. Am I missing something?

Posting and deleting works? I've never been able to delete posts in the past, so I never thought to try that.

I may have that wrong. I could have sworn I saw that option at one point but now I don't. I need the paper bag over head emoji!

EDIT: It looks like we have the option to delete posts .

EDIT: It looks like we have the option to delete posts very briefly.

I never liked that we couldn't delete a post. Only way to do it was to flag a mod to do it for you. Now it appears that we can, which is great.

Agree with that!

I do miss being able to delete a post in progress. Happens when you start a post and someone else answers it

Margaret, if you click on the icon to the right of the wee camera, it gives you the option to delete draft.

Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you!. I thought that was the download icon.

Got it, thank you. This works the same on mobile and on desktop

You can also go a bit farther to the right of the draft icon and see the arrowed circles? Those are "undo" and "redo" options.

(For example, I typed "Undo" in my comment box, and then clicked that "Undo" button to see what it did. My word, Undo, disappeared. I clicked "Redo", and my word came back into the comment box.)

Cool!
