Batch delete scenes?

[db11]

Is there a plugin that will delete all scenes in a model in one shot?

Thanks.

One-liner in Ruby Console.

p=Sketchup.active_model.pages; while p[0]; p.erase(p[0]); end

You work out how to make it into a Plugin...
It will annoy your users, UNLESS its results are VERY VERY expected...
It is NOT undo-able !

Thanks TIG... works perfectly for my purpose!

Thanks for the warning: I made a copy of the file before running the code in the console — and the 30 some scenes were all messed up from some origin / scale changes, so nothing worth keeping — but I can see how it could easily annoy users with unexpected outcomes.

I'm neither brave enough nor educated enough in Ruby to attempt making a plugin from it

scenes.

To delete all scenes, select the first in the list, hold the Shift key and select the last in the list, they should now all be highlighted, now click the -ve button to remove them...
No Plugin or code needed...

Doh!

Not sure why that didn't occur to me... maybe because I always use the Scenes Manager in thumbnails mode, so didn't see it as a list that could be selected that way. Lame, I know

No problem!
At least you now know two ways to do it
