How to delete all the scopes in Simulink?

54 views (last 30 days)
Hi, in a Simulink model, I have used "Create and connect viewer" to see the signal in a specific point. I attach a snapshot to show how it looks like.
Now, after I while that I simulate and program, Simulink tells me that it has 7 scopes, but I actually see only one! I have no idea where the other 6 are...Is there a way to see where are the scopes, or just to delete all the scopes from the command window?

I attach a smaller version of the file. If I try "connect to viewer", it still shows me that I can choose among 7 scopes that I do not see.

Hi Maria,
Please select Diagram > Signals & Ports > Signal & Scope Manager. You will be able to see (and delete) all the scopes attached to the model, even the "invisible ones".

Hey it seems as if the signal & scope manager was taken out and I can not figure out how to do this otherwise. I know this is a an old post but it any help would be appriciated!

%Try running the below command in the command window in your current working directory where the model is present
delete_block(find_system('state_space_forum','BlockType','Scope'));
% where 'state_space_forum'is your Simulink model name % This will delete all the Scopes that are present in the model

Hi, it does not seem to work...

To erase all scope viewers (the 'invisible' scopes) programmatically, use (seems to be working on R2020a):
mdl = 'your_model_name';
all_scope_viewer = find_system(mdl,'AllBlocks','on','IOType','viewer');
delete_block(all_scope_viewer);
This should do the work. The key here is the 'AllBlocks' to 'on' option, which seems undocumented. However, this appears to trigger some handle errors within the Signal & Scope Manager, which seems not aware of the manual deletion. Save your model and next time you open it, the handle errors will be gone.
all_scope_viewer = find_system(mdl,'AllBlocks','on','BlockType','Scope');
should also work, provided that all the scopes in your model are scope viewers (in case you do not want to delete the regular scopes).
A missing feature that would be useful: the ability to 'comment out' those scope viewers without actually deleting them (the same as the regular scopes that support this feature).
