As the title suggests I have two dud screens with nothing really on them besides containers. However when I try to delete them I get stuck on a please wait popup. I tried doing it with monitor opened in the background and it disconnected from the session. I feel it is bad practice to have pages there not doing anything. Can someone please assist me with deleting these screens? I provided two images below to give a better insight into what is happening.
Hi @CrimsonFox242 ,
You generally should not have to do this, but have you tried deleting everything in the screen before deleting the screen itself ?

Yes but when I do that I can't add anything to the other screens as it will go to that please wait pop-up forever. It seems to occur to when I remove the modern Header object from the modern controls. I am very confident now as when I tried to ctrl X the header modern control it got stuck on the please wait loop.
When I deleted the other items it didn't glitch like that smh I should've known better than to use a modern control.
@CrimsonFox242 ,
I guess you have found another issue with modern controls. There is not much else I can suggest.
I have the same issue with deleting a modern header control.
I can delete the header but after that, I can't delete the container or the screen.
Same here. I try different apps and occurs in all. When delete a Header the app can't be saved anymore. I have to force close, reopen and the Header still there.
I'm also experiencing this issue. On one particular screen in my app, I get the "Please Wait" message and it doesn't let me do anything else. I can't find a way to delete a screen in edit/authoring without loading any of the components/controls causing this issue.
