  1. Cut an object.
    If you have modified the current object after opening it, a Warning on Cut or Delete dialog box appears.
  2. Optional: In the Warning on Cut or Delete dialog box, select the convenient option:
    • Yes to edit the modified data.

      A new window opens to edit every object listed in the warning dialog box.

    • No to lose the modifications made until you run the cut command.
    • Cancel to end the cut operation.
