P: Ability to delete multiple paths

agreed

please... no scripts.. those are just band-aids.... we need it implemented into the application.

I think David Jensen should chime in with a fabulous script to do this elegantly. David? Is this possible?

This may help just a tiny bit - it is the fastest way to delete multiple paths I was able to come up with:

You are gonna need two hands to do this.

I highlight the top most path in Paths Palate and keep my mouse in that exact position. Then using my other hand, I hit 'delete' on my keyboard.

As the top most path is deleted the rest of paths 'move up', so the next path appears right where I left my mouse. So without needing to repositioning my mouse again, I simply click and hit delete, click - delete, click - delete ....

It's quick, give it a try 😉

Coincidentally i ran into an example today of why this feature would be very useful. I had to delete all these paths one by one....

"a lot of changes" == it'll take me more than an hour. 🙂

This is a great idea!

; ) To me, somebody at adobe saying that it requires a lot of changes to the application code sounds like a difficult task. That is why i Photoshop for a living! it is much easier! haha...

Where did I say it was too hard?

Chris, are you saying this is too hard for Adobe to accomplish? I've seen you guys pull off bigger tasks over the years. 😉 Seriously though, everybody in the prepress industry would THANK you for adding this functionality. Dragging 20+ paths to the trash one at a time isn't fun. It really kills productivity.
