Reset multiple images' clipping paths to "None"

In InDesign CS4, is there a way to check all images at once and reset their clipping paths to "none?" I work on catalogs that have several thousand photos (tif, Photoshop, and a few jpg files) in each one. We break the catalogs into approximately 10 sections/documents then organize them into a book file/palette, so there are only a few hundred images in each section/document. Originally a clipping path was applied to the photos (either a Photoshop clipping path or a "detect edges" path), but we now save them with transparency, so I'd like to be able to turn them all of at once (especially the "detect edges" paths).

Any suggestions? I know basically nothing about scripting, so writing a script wouldn't work in this case.

I appreciate any help...

Thanks,

Lloyd

here you go:

# target indesign
function main() {
          var docs = app.documents.everyItem().getElements(),
                    l = docs.length;
          while(l--) {
                    try {
                              docs.rectangles.everyItem().images.everyItem().clippingPath.clippingType = ClippingPathType.NONE;
                    } catch(e) {
                              alert(e);
                    }
                    alert('All done! You can go outside and play now!')
          }
}
app.doScript('main()', undefined, undefined, UndoModes.entireScript, 'Reset Clipping');

it works for all opened indesign files. I don't think it will work if you gave grouped pictures, buut i'm a bit short on time to tweak it now

Hi vamitul,

we've got a array here:

docs.rectangles.everyItem().images.everyItem().clippingPath

@Peter – not hard at all:

app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.interactWithAll;
app.doScript(resetAllClippingPathsToActiveDoc, ScriptLanguage.JAVASCRIPT, [], UndoModes.ENTIRE_SCRIPT, "Reset all Clipping Paths of the Active Document");
function resetAllClippingPathsToActiveDoc(){
    var d=app.activeDocument;
    var allGraphicsInDoc = d.allGraphics;
    for(var n=0;n<allGraphicsInDoc.length;n++){
        if(allGraphicsInDoc.hasOwnProperty("clippingPath")){allGraphicsInDoc.clippingPath.clippingType = ClippingPathType.NONE};
        };
};

does it work? Still can't test.. 48%..
