Unable to delete a cavity

Some how a cavity shape was created in my design on the TOP layer the size of substrate outline. The cavity was not in early design revision. I believe this is the reason my shapes no longer update. I'm unable to delete the shape. I've run dbdoctor. I get the following message when trying to delete the shape:

Selected item not valid for current operation, ignored: Shape(auto-generated) "Not On A Net, Cavity/Top"
No valid items selected for the current operation, exiting.

Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Thanks,

Craig

Craig,
Not sure why you can't delete the cavity shape. If you want to strip the APD .mcm database down to just that and send to me I will take a look. I may be able to remove it with a SKILL routine and provide that to you. Send to dal@daltools.com
