Edit and Delete a point - 

Freehand - When sampling Freehand this will remove/delete the point that you choose.

Target Samples or Grid - When sampling using the Target Samples or Grid method, the delete option will deactivate the point.

Note: You will still see the point as an unmarked sample point when sampling, and the Mark Sample # banner changes once you get closer to your next sample point. When you save that event the point will be gone in the Sample Event. In the example to the right, the Sample Event has been saved and Sample Point 11 is now deleted from the Sample Event.
