So, does anyone know of a way to efficiently cut features in multiple

(multiple layers) that are either inside or outside the polygon, and
then delete them?


Disregarding the "multiple":

"Vector -> Geoprocessing -> Clip" deletes the items outside the polygon
Nope, doesn't. - In my first point I said: */Vector Geometry Processing Clip, but it wants to extract the data inside the polygon and create a new file with the extracted data. (To be expected) /*but meant: */Vector-> GeoProcessingTools-> Clip, but..... /*(my bad, apologies)*/ /*It does not delete, it clips them out into a new layer/- which is not what I'm hoping to achieve./*/

Thanks for the thought anyway, though.

You would have to do it for every layer you want to be cut, the dialogue box will stay open after cutting. If the polygon layer contains just one polygon, no selecting is necessary.

BTW: make sure all layers share the same CRS (i.e. turn on-the-fly-reprojection off)
