Hello. Today I was inserting the new variables into the Variables Table. But I made a mistake and tried deleting. The program wouldn’t let me delete them. Then I tried saving the file, but it still wouldn’t let me. I mean, the file would save, but the new variable would get stuck. How can I fix this? Why is this happening?

If any Custom variables… or other tool variables are referenced in a formula, you can’t delete them until you delete any tool / pattern piece that is using them. You often have to work backwards until get to the tool that needs to be deleted. You may find that you don’t want to delete a bunch of work, so it may be better to just leave a random variable in the table. This is where experience helps in planning a pattern before starting to draft.

I tried to upload the video here, but it won’t let me do it because it’s more than 3 MB.

This option isn’t valid because the list must be clean, otherwise it’s confusing. The variable isn’t related to any of the previous ones; it simply isn’t deleted or filled in with the formula. Well, no problem. I’ll find a solution. I’ll redo the pattern. Thanks.

Maybe you could set the file to Anyone can view it instead of only select people can view it.
