How to deal with SETS?

Anonymous — Thu, 28 Jun 2018 15:33:36 GMT

Hello everyone,

Each time after I finish modeling something and look at outliner I have dozen of SETS that I didn't bind and have no use of them at all. I don't understand why they appear.

I tried to remove them from outliner, but they're removing only with containing object.

I tried to remove them from relation editor, but I can't highlight them.

How to delete all sets and disable this feature?

Please help.

So annoying...

Hi @Anonymous

Generally whenever I see this deleting all the history on my objects and then deleting the sets in the Outliner works.

When you get a chance can you please try that and let me know how it goes?

I have loads and loads of sets in my outliner but I've no idea where they've come from. I've tried just deleting them and it doesn't work, tried deleting by type history but that also doesn't work. I don't know what they are or what to do with them. Please help!!

Hi @Stephrobert18

When you get a chance, can you please zip and attach the scene file here or via dropbox/google drive or another file sharing program so I can take a look at it? If the file is confidential or under NDA please send it to me in a private message instead of posting it here.
