\"\"<\/p>\n

I’ve been asked a few times now on how to delete objects, files, takes, layers, etc. from MotionBuilder’s Scenes. I thought I would take a few moments to go through the basics of FBDelete(). All examples below share pretty much the exact same structure with there scripts, we create an empty list, we set up condition and if those condition are met than we add to our list, once done we take that list and we perform FBDelete() on it. This is a great little exercise to get familiar with lists.\u00a0 Each example I have provided will demonstrate performing the script through “user defined name”, “user selected”, “all occurrences within scene” and for some “by file extension”.<\/p>\n

I created an index as to make it easier for people to jump to sections.<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Like I mentioned the scripts are pretty repetitive, we search the scene, than create a list with all that is found and once done we take all that is on the list and delete them using the “.FBDelete()”.<\/p>\n
    My next post will cover pretty much the same topic but in the next example we will be creating a list of scene components, and then processing that list to create a list of thing I wish to delete. You will be able to find it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
    I hope this helps.<\/p>\n
