Topic: How can a .qet file be stripped from no longer used elements?

Once used elements are stored in the .qet schematic file.

Experimenting with modifying elements, or redesigning a schema, quite a lot of elements can gather in the file.

Those which are not used anymore are marked in red in Collections pane, project section, see picture.

I was thinking unused elements would get stripped off when saving, but that dont happen.

How can they be removed?
