Can't Delete a 1099-B Entry

I made a couple of manual entries from a 1099-B. It turns out I will be better off importing the form this year. But I am unable to delete the sales I have entered. It appears to be a display problem. On the summary screen the display is truncated so there is no trash can icon. I tried closing the file and reopening it - no joy.

Using desktop version in MacIntosh.

Any suggestions?

And the 1099-B uses a different GUI from the other 1099s.

I spoke with a service agent. The answer is that there is a slider bar at the bottom of the truncated display that brings the missing buttons into view. I missed that entirely in the subtlety of the grey on white color scheme. Problem solved.

Here's a user-suggested fix to reduce display size so that all buttons are showing:

The correct way is to change the screen resolution from optimum to the highest possible resolution. I.e. this means changing the built in display from 1152x720 to 1440x900. This shrinks the picture so that it shows all of the intuit screen and you are able to see the cancel or save button to exit.
