can't delete attributes

Hi, I've tried to delete all the attributes in the attached file that begin with "LINE...", but the attributes themselves refuse to go away.  I tried exiting and reopening the file, but that didn't work either.

Thanks for any help...

    Hello,

    What version of Global Mapper are you using?

    What workflow did you use to try to delete the attributes?

    Cheers,

    I select the layer, open the editing window, press the delete attribute button, check the boxes for the attributes I wanted to delete, and press OK.

    I was able to reproduce your problem, and added bug #18026 to our task list.  We will post a message on this thread when the status of the bug changes.

    The issue was that there were multiple copies of some of the LINE2_* attributes. The delete was only deleting the first instance of each attribute. I have fixed this so that deleting will remove all instances of the attribute.

    I have placed new builds with the latest changes at http://data.bluemarblegeo.com/downloads/global-mapper/dailybuilds/ for you to try.

    Thanks,
