Hold Control key down then click each slide either in the left scene view for slides or Story view for scenes (click just outside a slide in the scene container). Hit delete.
Hi Ali, I think what everyone is asking is to delete multiple scenes from the 'Story View' and not just individual slides. I am trying to do the same thing (I think) and you can't do it from there at all. You can only delete one 'Scene' at a time (I am trying to break down an 18 scene course back into individual scenes based stories for reference).
Thanks for clarifying! Storyline will allow you to delete one scene at a time. It sounds like you need the ability to select multiple scenes and delete them all at once. That would make a great feature request!
Can anyone clearly answer the above question, how to remove or delete multiple scenes in an eLearning. Tired using the above suggestions but it only deletes the slides from the scenes but not the actual scenes.
I am having to pull apart a huge project of close to 100 scenes, as the client now wants it 'modularised', so i have had to resort to file save as 12 times and delete scenes one at a time per module ...
I can see how this task can be frustrating! This is not a feature we've implemented in the latest update, which means it's still in the hands of our team. We'll keep you updated in this discussion if we hear of any progress.

Hmmmm, what am I doing wrong? Because I am trying to control select multiple scenes and that does not seem to work for me.
Hey Tom!
You'll need to click on each slide individually rather than the scene itself while holding down the Control button.
Let me know how that goes!

Hi Sonya and welcome to E-Learning Heroes :)
Thanks for reaching out for clarification on what you would like to do.
You can delete entire scenes from your Storyline file, but it will be one at a time as Alyssa mentioned above.
Here is a brief demo using Peek 360 so that you can take a look at how to do so.
If you need to delete more than you need to keep, you may want to consider the reverse and simply import the slides needed into a new file.
Hi Leslie
Is there any intention to add this feature?

which is beyond frustrating ....

It's still not updated. :( Any timeline for this?
