Delete render elements which start with "mk_"

Submitted by ce89 on Mon, 2022-03-21 07:39

I've been trying to find a way to delete render elements with a certain suffix in the elementname, in my case "mk_" but I cannot seem to find any resources that describe how to do this. There are plenty of resources on adding or deleting all elements but not by the elementname or a ceratin string part.

If you can help in any that that would be super appreciated.

you can use this Function :

(
	fn Delete_rEl_By_String str = (
		local reMgr = maxOps.GetCurRenderElementMgr()
		local num = reMgr.numrenderelements()
		for n = num-1 to 0 by -1 where (findstring (reMgr.getrenderelement n).elementName str) != undefined do (
			reMgr.RemoveRenderElement (reMgr.getrenderelement n)
		)
	)
	Delete_rEl_By_String "mk_"
)
<code/>
