Script Command for Clear Action Log

[VeeGee]

Good morning all,
To help clear out histories, etc., I've been using (a modified version of) ListManagementHouseCleaning. I have searched the forum and help file and enabled Command IDs, but I didn't see any script command to clear the Action Log. Right now, after using the cleaning script, I go into the Action Log and click the Clear button.

Is there a script command for this action ? If so, I'd like to somehow incorporate it into my modified copy of ListManagementHouseCleaning.

I am not sure about a script command, but what should work as 1 alternative would be a script which saves your settings after List Cleaning script runs (if it doesn't do that already), then deletes action.dat from your Data folder, then restarts XY without saving (#190), it would require a restart but in theory it should accomplish what you require.

Does not exist. Delete the action.dat file instead...

Hi VeeGee, if you have any suggestions, comments or updates for that ListManagementHouseCleaning script let me know over in that thread. It's been a long while since I've looked at that script, but I'd be glad to update it especially if your suggestions could be used by others...and when I finally get done with this ThumbnailMaintenance update. Thanks.

@jupe and highend - thank you. I use SyncbackPro to backup (w/revision history) my XY data files to my NAS on XY close. I updated that profile to delete the DAT file prior to backing up. This way I can automatically cleanup that history and still back everything else up when I close XY. I continue using ListManagementHouseCleaning from a CTB when I need to clear those entries out.

@klownboy - will do. So far my modifications have been minor, e.g. pre-selecting the checkboxes for items in LIST2. Your script runs nice and smooth w/o any errors
