About This Feature

Overview

Delete View is a view management feature in WPS Office multi-dimensional tables on Windows. It helps you remove views that are no longer needed, keep the left navigation pane organized, and simplify daily table management.

Core tasks include:

Locate the target view in the left navigation pane.
Open the more options menu and delete the selected view.
Confirm the deletion without removing records or fields from the underlying table.

This feature is useful when you want to clean up old views, remove duplicate layouts, or organize a shared table before collaboration.

Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Supports deleting a selected view from the left navigation pane in a multi-dimensional table and confirms the action in a dialog box. Deleting the view does not remove table records or fields.	Microsoft Lists supports deleting a list view, but users need edit permission and the default view cannot be deleted directly.	Google Sheets supports deleting saved filter views, which store filtered spreadsheet displays rather than database-style navigation views.	Notion database views can be deleted from view settings, and the last remaining view cannot be deleted.	Adobe Acrobat mainly provides PDF viewing modes and page display preferences, not an equivalent database view deletion workflow.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: The delete entry is close to the view name in the left navigation pane, which is convenient for cleaning up view lists. Deletion affects only the view configuration, not the table data.	Compared with WPS: deletion depends on edit permission, and the default view must be changed before it can be removed.	Compared with WPS: the deleted object is a filter view for spreadsheet filtering, not a multi-dimensional table navigation view.	Compared with WPS: view deletion is supported, but the last-view restriction is more explicit.	Compared with WPS: Acrobat focuses on PDF reading and page display rather than table view management.

Overall Conclusion
For users who need to manage table views on Windows, WPS Delete View is focused on quick cleanup directly from the left-side view list. Compared with Microsoft, Google, Notion, and Adobe, it is more closely aligned with day-to-day table view organization instead of permission-heavy list settings, filter views, or PDF display modes.
