the title should be " cannot delete selected part using delete key or edit-delete"
Comment 2 Hans Breuer 2013-12-30 21:18:39 UTC 
The issue came up on the mailing list already, please see the following thread:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/dia-list/2013-April/msg00058.html

Let me repeat the main question:
>> How do you press Delete on a Mac?
>> Mine only has a Backspace key.
Fn+Backspace can indeed delete the selected object.

If you used the menu entry Edit/Delete it still does not work.
So there is a bug. But does Fn+Backspace not work for you?
What key combination did you try?
Comment 3 ridha 2013-12-31 05:02:36 UTC 
Ops, thanks, got it! only the edit-delete still not functioning.
but, don`t use that, so its ok.
Comment 4 Hans Breuer 2013-12-31 10:52:35 UTC 
So there is a least the edit-delete bug -> reopening. And to repeat my question:
What key combination did you try? (Command-Backspace?)
Comment 5 ridha 2013-12-31 12:07:28 UTC 
on MAC keyboard, fn+delete button then its OK.
