How to delete all instance of a linked object

Hi Kasyan,

Thanks for this script. It is a completely satisfying addition to the Links panel!

Also, it works fine when installed in the User versus the Application. 

It undoes in one step--always a nice touch. I give it two thumbs way up!

This will definitely go in my "Anytime Upgrades" startup scripts recommendations.

Super interesting and thanks for your replies.

Kasyan, the first script worked for me but the second one did not.

I like the basic idea, though!

Hi Kasyan,

I was just looking at that script! I wish it could become a Links panel menu choice, perhaps by way of a startup script. I was trying to get ChatGPT to rewrite the script to function that way in the Links panel, but ChatGPT is pretty lame when it comes to writing ExtendScripts.

You can do this by the 'Remove all instances of the same link' script.

This is actually a useful idea for the Links panel! I like it.

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out. As @Eugene Tyson said, it is not possible in InDesign as of now. I would suggest you post it here (https://indesign.uservoice.com/). This way, you will keep getting all the updates related to this feature, and other users can also upvote, which would help us prioritize. Also, this is the best way of communicating with the Engineering and Product teams regarding issues and suggestions so they can be implemented in future releases.

You cannot - you'd need to go to each image placed and delete it manually.

It might be possible with a script or another method that I'm not aware of .
