Delete Geometry Node
![Delete Geometry node.](../../../_images/node-types_GeometryNodeDeleteGeometry.webp)
The Delete Geometry node removes the selected part of a geometry. It behaves similarly to the Delete tool in Edit Mode. The type of elements to be deleted can be specified with the domain and mode properties.
Inputs
- Geometry
Standard geometry input.
- Selection
Boolean field that is true for parts of the geometry to be deleted.
Properti
- Domain
The domain on which the selection field is evaluated.
- Point
The selection is on the points, control points, and vertices of the geometry.
- Edge
The selection is on the edges of the mesh component. The other components are not modified.
- Faces
The selection is on the faces of the mesh component. The other components are not modified.
- Spline
The selection is on the splines in the curve component. For each spline, it will either be deleted entirely or not at all. The other components are not modified.
- Instances
The selection is on the top-level instances, and the entire instance is removed if it is selected. If the input also contains realized geometry, that will be unaffected.
- Mode
The type of elements to be affected. This only applies to the mesh component.
- All
Vertices, edges, and faces in the selection will be deleted.
- Only Edges & Faces
Vertices won't be deleted, even if they are in the selection.
- Only Faces
Only faces in the selection will be deleted.
Output
- Geometry
Standard geometry output.
