If you did as I do you will have used the Library Manager to create a library for the clips related to the project in hand. If so simply delete that library - they are simply thumbnails of your images not copies.

If you wish to delete clips from the library but leave other entries intact you can use the mouse to click the first clip you wish to delete, hold down the shift key and then click the last clip you wish to delete - this will select them all, then delete.
You can also select various clips by holding the CTRL key whilst you click the required clips.

To delete the clips themselves from your hard drive you also have to hold down the shift key when pressing delete, this will bring up an option to delete the clips in addition to the thumbnails.

deleting files

Post by Ken Veal »

It makes things a lot easier if your clips ,files and projects are stored in the Library Manager then they can be deleted in one swoop.To access the L.M either Go Tools Lib Man or select it from the list via the drop down arrow next to where you change the library type.Choose the media type then new-name it,select edit to amend name/description if required.You can then delete the named folders and their contents in one go when you want to.
If you did not use the L.M. a project file will have a .vsp extention.
To delete non consequtive files - Select the 1st file then hold down control as you highlight each file then click delete +shift to delete them all.
To del consequtive files Select 1st file, +select the last clip which will highlight all inbetween then press del. + shift which will remove all those clips from the library.In V.S. 9 + later confirm that you want the files deleted from the hard drive too.In V>S> 8 + earlier deleting and icon will also delete the original file whether image,audio or a video file.
