Can't remove an image from a model

I added a few images to my model using View > Model Display > Images > Add

Now I want to remove those images. I tried following PTC's instructions (link below), but I'm stuck at step 2; I can't select an image. Clicking the image in the graphics window does nothing, and when I click the imported images dropdown, it's empty.

 

Is there any way to get rid of the images from the model? I've tried moving / deleting the source image, but this just shows a gray area where the image used to be and gives a "could not locate image" error.

I'm using Parametric 2.0.

Hi,

 

I opened my test assembly and included an image in its sub-assembly. Now I can reproduce your problem, when I activate main assembly. When I activate sub-assembly, I can remove the image.

 

I guess that you do not know, in which assembly component are your images included. Unfortunately I do not know how to find parent model of the image easily. You have to search all assembly components one by one manually.

Not sure you can see the menu below:Capture.JPG

you can then select the image either directly from graphic window or pick it from "Imported Images"  and hit "- Remove".

I'm stuck at step 5 in your list; I can't select an image. Clicking the image in the graphics window does nothing, and when I click the imported images dropdown, it's empty.
