Deleting saved views

3D Design

Hi all.

I just noticed that in my original files, there's a bunch of saved views.
I'd like to do a little cleaning ... But clicking on the red cross seems to have no effect. Is there a special procedure to be able to delete them all?

There is no direct way, maybe a macro might be able to remove these unwanted views

Hi, it's a cache story:

  • 1 Remove the document view

  • 2 Delete the view of Solidworks

    -3 Save and close the document... At home it works :slightly_smiling_face:

I believe OP knows that to remove them all, one will have to delete them, But he is looking to delete them all in one go instead of doing that one by one.

A story of hiding indeed! thank you @Scofield

In fact, as I was tired of clicking 3x to access the saved views, I had " pinned " the orientation window so that it remained open => big mistake! SolidWorks did not regenerate deleting views.
Once it's undone, nikel on the other hand :slight_smile:

Hello @coin37coin ;

Strangely, in the export options of the Solidworks settings there is a " Saved views" checkbox:

I think it's worth trying to export your settings (under a new name) with this option unchecked, and then import them again.
With Solidworks, it's not impossible that it will work.
