Hi guys, heres a quick one.

I have all my materials in a selection, is there a way to iterate the selection 
and test if the material is assigned to anything and drop it if its not?



Thanks in advance.

import win32com
xsi = Application

matColl =  win32com.client.Dispatch( XSI.Collection )
matColl.AddItems (xsi.Selection)

for eachMat in matColl:
if eachMat.UsedBy.Count == 0:
print eachMat.UsedBy.Count
matColl.RemoveItems (eachMat)

xsi.SelectObj (matColl)
matColl.RemoveAll()
