In the Piano-Roll view, either left click in a single note or drag the mouse to capture multiple notes, and then right-click and select delete selected events:
BIAB & RB2026 Win.(Audiophile), Windows 10 Pro & Windows 11, Cakewalk Bandlab, Izotope Prod.Bundle, Roland RD-1000, Synthogy Ivory, Session Keys Grand S & Electric R, Kontakt, Focusrite 18i20, KetronSD2, NS40M, Pioneer Active Monitors.
If VideoTrack's explanaition for deleting notes in the PianoRoll does not work for you, please let us know and we can help you troubleshoot.
I also just wanted to mention that notes can also be deleted in the notation window. Make sure you're in editable Notation mode first, then right click the note and select Delete Note in the menu.
Yes, I noticed it disappeared from the Staff Roll Mode note edit box 2 or 3 years ago, but since I had seldom used it wasn't concerned. My usual method for deleting in this mode is to hold the delete key then click on the offending note. I started using this method years ago because it was quicker when I wanted to delete a series of notes.
Although this works, it's not ideal for me as my laptop it on a stand above and behind my mixer controller, meaning, I have to stretch with my left arm to get to the Delete button. it would be okay for just one or two deletions but not when inputting a complete solo section by ear.
It would be much better to have the Delete option when right-clicking. It would also be better to have consistency across the notation view section.
I do support that the original delete method should be retained, unless there is justified reason why it cannot still be implemented.

Somehow, I get the feeling that this is more likely to be a ... I forgot to do it... coding. I can't see why a simple button couldn't be included. After all, it was there in the past!.
EDIT: It's still there in the code but but was just hidden behind a listbox so I moved it over to the left bbw64-TPGEdit3.zip (BB21-839) See if that works for you, if so I can edit the latest version if they don't fix it soon.
You don't need to rename it just extract it to the \bb\ folder and run.
Code:
object PGEditDialog: TPGEditDialog
...
...
object Delete: TButton
Tag = 109
Left = 304
Top = 196
Width = 70
Height = 25
Caption = 'Delete'
TabOrder = 12
OnClick = DeleteClick
end
Matt while there are packages which will decompile an exe to machine code I am talking about resource editors which will take an exe file and report on all resources found in it. It finds strings, images, icons, dialogs etc which it will list in explorer format.
One package by Angus Johnson is freeware and can be downloaded here.
To find the name just drag the EDA cross hair target. It finds the hidden button also that can be moved, but you need to compile it in the resource editor to be permanent.

Hey Pipeline, Thanks for this!
I can confirm that the Delete button shows up and it does indeed delete the notes.
That's a nice utility program. I might have a look at it when I have time.
I wonder if it can resolve the problem within BIAB of not displaying large files list within the Practice applet. A problem that hasn't been resolved since I reported it to PG Music in 2018.
