# Delete

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page describes the **Delete node** of the Scene Nodes system in **Cinema 4D**. It removes points, edges or polygons — optionally by selection — the basic subtractive step in procedural modeling chains.

You can use this Node to remove points, edges or polygons from a spline or polygon geometry. You can also use selections for this.

Points, edges and polygons can be easily removed from a geometry, e.g., by defining the index numbers on the Delete Node. Here, for example, the polygon with the number 0 was removed from a cube.
