I am new to Creo & wondering how t erase the datum planes that are in this drawing view. The assembly drawing was copied from an existing Wildfire drawing. I would have just chosen to erase all from the view previously.  I do not see where there is an option to erase all.

Set the filter in the lower right to datum and then drag a window around all the view.

Also, if you have maintenance, vote for this IDEA.

Those old datums are the bane of my existance.

...and the primary reason I don't use PTC's GD&T functionality.

 

Can you simply "erase" them in the drawing view?

I am picking them one by one to erase, just thought I should be able to erase all by view like we used to be able to. It's very tedious when you have some many to get rid of.
