Is there a way to delete all the lights in a scene without selecting every one by one. The Hierarchy Editor should help with that but I cannot select all the lights at ounce or do I mis the point?
Thanks for reading.

There is a Python script in Freestuff which will do just what you want. It will only work in ProPack and P5, though.

Ockham rocks! Those Python scripts save a lot of time

What's the exact name? I do not see a "deleat light" option. This is something I could really use and want to get the correct download.

"Reset Lights - a python script" by Agiel. In free stuff. Appears to be for all versions of Poser. I use it very successfully with P5.

The Ockham script is in the freestuff here. It's called "Change Lights". It has four choices of actions. One is to delete lights.

I've been dying to find something like this. If it also came in a Mac version I'd be thrilled. Any chance of porting it over? It really looks great, not to mention it would be extremely time saving!

If Python works in Poser on the Mac, it should work. But python is only available in the ProPack and Poser 5. I'll chime in and say that his LightPanel is, for P5, one of the coolest tools ever -- not only can you delete all the lights, you can chose to delete only some, change them around from ray trace to shadow map, change colors, type -- basically, one panel that can change all your light settings in one nice and easy place. On the link above, you'll see his delete lights script close to the top, but the panel is a bit of the way down. And every one of these scripts is just the coolest little things. COuldn't do stuff without him :)

Thanks, ynsaen. :) My P5 for Mac did come with Python, but as a newer Poser user I have to confess I haven't yet looked into using it. So are you saying I might be able to use this Python script on my Mac? I'd really love for it to be able to work, especially after I've tried a light setting with a gazillion lights that takes forever to delete one by one before I can try a new set. If anyone knows if this is possible without causing problems to my Mac, I'm all ears. Arry :)
