In a normal bot, I use the send_photo method to send a photo to the user with a set of reply keystrokes, called message_a. Afterwards I use the register_message_handler method to monitor bot.register_message_handler( callback = self.start_panel, content_types = ['text'],regexp = "Button_A"). I want to delete message_a when the user clicks on Button_A, but the only parameter passed to register_message_handler is the message for "Button_A". Is it not possible to pass the message of "message_A" into the callback function as well? How can I improve this?

I don't get you. Can you explain what are you trying to achieve in your bot?

bot sends messageA with a reply to the keyboards "buttonA" and "buttonB". I want the user to delete messageA and send a new messageB when they click on "buttonA".

Ok, so you are sending a message with 2 buttons and you need to delete the message when one of the buttons is clicked?

Yes, that's right.

And what's the issue?
Create a callback query handler to catch events of buttons getting clicked and use bot.delete_message and send a message

I use register_message_handler to monitor the button, but the only callback I pass in is the button's message, not the message I want to delete.

The build button utilises not InlineKeyboardMarkup, but ReplyKeyboardMarkup

Maybe you are using register_next_step_handler and not message_handler?

I am trying register_next_step_handler, but can't message_handler be implemented in my scenario?
