Single use resources not being deleted when no longer used?

I have an application where all the texts are taken from (non-single use) resources. However I still have many (100s) of single use resources in my project from before I converted the text to use a (non-single use) resource. The majority of these single use resources are "New Text". My understanding was these single use resources should be deleted automatically when no longer used.

Is this feature broken, or have I misunderstood?

Is there some way to manually tidy these no longer used single use resrouces?

Using TouchGFX Designer v4.15.0.

Hello MLook.1,

No you are right, this should delete automatically the single use text if no TextArea uses it. I just tried with TouchGFX Designer 4.15 and it deletes automatically not used single use texts as expected.

Did you create your project with 4.15 ?

Also a way to delete in bulk could be to edit the texts.xlsx file situated in assets/texts/ and here in Excel you can delete many rows at once. Close TouchGFX Designer before doing this and only reopen after saving your changes.
