Why won't a two-finger tap delete a scrap in the curtain?

\n

Short answer: Pinned scraps are protected from the two-finger-tap delete, or the gesture is switched off in Settings → Junk Yard. Use the tile's hover trash button instead.

\n

Either the scrap is pinned or the gesture is switched off. Pinned scraps are protected — a two-finger tap never deletes them, so unpin first or delete from the board. If no tile deletes this way, turn on Two-finger tap deletes a scrap in Settings → Junk Yard. A tile's hover trash button always works.
