what a dork I am -
looks like I left the camera and light on from the start so it - so when I select the rocket the camera and light get highlighted as well!
how can I remover the camera and the light without clearing my rocket?
thanks in advance
Paula
Select the individual object in the outliner (top right tree), move your mouse cursor back to the viewport, and press X to delete. Your camera/light are probably in your Rocket Asset collection, which is why they highlight when you click the rocket instance.
mmm tried that and of course if I delete the camera it deletes my rocket - yes my camera and light are in with myRocketAssets but I can't seem to see them in the layers/collection list.
I ended up scrapping the whole rocket and making a new one - it turned out much better - plus I am pleased with myself because I did it from memory.
thanks, I will make sure I don't do that again.
