How to remove angled windows from a large structure?
Can I remove them or do I have to destroy the whole structure and everything in/on it?

Just delete that wall piece and replace it with the one you want.

I'm talking about the circular and rectangular large structures. Afaik, there is no wall to delete.

Means the room modules. Round or square, have the solid or glass top connectors in the set.
As for window try going into edit mode and aim all around window till only it shows blue. I think thats how works. As have not removed any of mine.... yet lol

That's the problem. eg. doors get highlighted normally and can be removed but windows do not.

I'm thinking, maybe the window frames get placed in the structure so they get below its surface and that's why we cannot select and highlight them.

It's strange though, these structures and their windows were there since the beginning. No-one has ever encountered this issue?

Won't that remove everything that is on and in that room though? eg. the garden dome etc.

I was worried as well so did it to one with just my mobile refiner and large refiner in it. And after removing window i went inside... all here.

Thanks.
Do you know of a way to return an item to exactly the same spot from when it was removed?
That structure has buttons, cables and it's a sole structure (ie. it's not connected anywhere) so it cannot be 'snapped' in place.

To replace the room i just placed it ontop of itself till went green.

EDIT - i used move feature, not rebuilt it just to clarify

Wait!

When i checked room that i moved the room under the dome. my agriculture station with gek disappeared. And the plants in hydro trays. The trays here but NOT plants. So it be risky.. but its only way i know how to remove windows. So i wouldnt if any plants and such in there.

If you put the window in then you can delete it the standard way. Go into edit mode high light the window and hit x. I do it all the time.

Did you try this recently or are you assuming it works from memory?

I tried to edit the windows on 3 different structures (2 circular and 1 rectangular). In all cases the windows could not be removed unless I removed the structure.
