No it was NOT that. it was something I routinely do before reading, like removing unwanted epigraph / dedication / etc front pages..
I had not even realised it was epub3 until I looked into why the operation was not being allowed...
it's been a while but I am pretty sure it would not let me delete a specific xhtml file from the left hand list, while in epub3, and the error message was something about operation not allowed. I remember googling that for a clue...
I don't think I have an epub3 source to hand, else I'd try to replicate it for you....
....update: I did keep a copy. i wanted to delete toc.xtml from the top of the left window files list, expecting the "real" toc to be elsewhere in the epub (i.e. as toc.ncx at the bottom of that list ), and I got " the nav document cannot be removed"...
is there a difference in where the toc is usually placed & how it is named, between e2 & e3 or was that something specific to this source. Sigil, when operating on epub2 , allows delete/ rename etc... for anything in that left window file list ?
