Virtuoso Layout delete vertices

Hi

Weird issue - haven't done layout in a couple of months but it didn't used to ever do this.  Now when I select things to delete (say a pin that's sitting on top of a rectangle) and I have the pin entirely selected, if I catch the rectangle's vertices below and delete, the pin gets deleted but also the vertex of the rectangle.  This didn't used to happen and I can't seem to find the feature I've accidentally enabled for this.

It's creating some very acute triangles in the layout which obviously aren't ideal

    Okay of course after I post this and thought I clicked everything it turns out I missed the "partial select" option in the top left.  Mystery solved (I think)
