Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Here you go. Select the object, and then run the script. Preferably map it to a shelf icon, or to a hot key.

Code:
string $selObj[] = `ls -sl`;

if ($selObj[0] == "")
	error "No object has been selected";
else
{
	select $selObj[0];
	int $numEdges[] = `polyEvaluate -e`;
	
	select -r ($selObj[0] + ".e[0:" + ($numEdges[0] -1) + "]");
	select -cl;
	select $selObj[0];
	
	print "Edges Cleared!\n";
}


Imagination is more important than knowledge.
