Deleting Documents in Casedo

In Casedo, you can easily delete individual pages, single documents or multiple documents.

Please remember that there is no Undo function in Casedo, all deletions are permanent. There is, however, an Undo Move function in Casedo.

WARNING – There is an existing bug in Casedo v1.8.0 related to using this feature (deleting single documents). Occasionally when deleting a single page in this way, highlights above the deleted page move down causing the highlights to be in the wrong place. If you use this feature we highly recommend making a back up copy of the Casefile first. If you want to delete a single page, the alternative is to use the Split and Merge features. You should always have back ups in place! This issue has been fixed in later releases of Casedo, you can find links to download them in the Release Notes.
