Aperture: How can I delete the master after I have removed the thumbnail?

[falkaveli]

How can I delete the master after I have removed the thumbnail? I meant to delete a 100 photo project, but accidentally deleted only thumbnails with "delete version" command. Is there an easy way to purge the masters? It is a referenced library.

If you go into the actual project... you should still see the masters. If there are no previews available, I am pretty sure that A3 will go to the master to show you the master. From there, select your masters and "delete version". Providing what you see are the only versions... they should be deleted from the library.

I do not use referenced masters, so I am not sure if A3 actually deletes the referenced files.
