How are you deleting the work? Drag-select a portion and press the DEL key?

Please read the pink panel at the top of the page and provide the information.

Have you pressed the yellow Stop button? Why can't I use the effects or other menu items?

Have you turned Snap To on in error? Why can't I select less than one second or click between whole seconds?
