Simply as title says. I've had stuff with red X's on it, and tried shift clicking, and it does nothing, or removes power lines from power poles. I tried rebinding it to ctrl-shift-click and it still doesn't do anything.

Queued deconstruction orders can be cancelled by holding Shift while click-dragging a deconstruction planner over the affected area.
When Shift is held down the area selection border will change from red to blue to indicate cancellation mode is in effect.

Okay, thanks... is there a way to cancel deconstruction
without having a planner prepared for it?

Alt + D/shortcut to get the planner and then do the thing.
