View Full Version : deleting Persp cameras
magilla 09-16-2003, 01:39 AM cameras from imports or copy/paste tend to build up in a scene - anyone know how to delete these?
// Error: line 1: Non-deletable node 'persp2' cannot be deleted. //

Can you just Hide it or will that not work.
Maybe even putting them into a layer then hiding perhaps.

nope that's not really what I'm after - thanks anyhoo...
I have a simple script that cycles through views in the active panel - I would like to exand it to cycle through all cameras - but it'll be a pain if I can't get rid of the crap cameras.

string $panel = `getPanel -withFocus`;
string $view = `lookThru -q`;
if($view=="persp")
lookThroughModelPanel persp1 $panel ;
else if($view=="persp1")
lookThroughModelPanel persp $panel ;

Following wgreenlee1's idea, you could then add a check so that the script only accepts a camera if it is visible.
I realise you want to delete the cameras, probably for more reasons than just the script, I'm just suggesting hiding the problem can still work. Make a group and move all the garbage in there. Messy, but if it gets you through the scene... :)
