pasted, outliner

Hello Everyone,

While creating a scene, we often copy old stuff and paste it into a new file. But in  the process we unknowingly create a pasted prefix for the object.  (If you'd look for the object name in your outliner, it shows pasted_object name). Now how do you remove that pasted for every copied file?

Well I have created a script for just that. So you don't need to worry about all the pasted and pasted.....................

for cleaning that there are many options you can try

  • Search and replace options {Loss point "it won't rename your shader"}
  • Script which I'll Give to you {It renames all nodes which are connected to that group/mesh} 

    follow the simple steps

    • open the script editor in MEL, paste this script 

    {

    string $pasted[] = `ls "pasted__*"`;

    string $object;

    for ( $object in $pasted )

    {

    string $elements[];

    // The values returned by ls may be full or partial dag

    // paths - when renaming we only want the actual

    // object name so strip off the leading dag path.

    //

    tokenize( $object, "|", $elements );

    string $stripped = $elements[ `size $elements` - 1 ];

     

    // Remove the 'pasted__' suffix from the name

    //

    $stripped = `substitute "pasted__" $stripped ""`;

     

    // When renaming a transform its shape will automatically be

    // be renamed as well. Use catchQuiet here to ignore errors

    // when trying to rename the child shape a second time.

    //

    catchQuiet(`evalEcho("rename " + $object + " " + $stripped)`);

    }

    • create the shortcut to shelf name it something like (Remove Pasted)
    • Select the main group of mesh
    • go to select, hierarchy and hit the shortcut we created just Pasted
    • its done now.
