Delete all sketch constraints at once

Dear forum. Please tell me if there were a faster way to delete all constraints at once instead of select each constraint and delete?

    I don't think there is, you can tick the show all constraint checkbox but only select them one at a time. It would be nice if you could add a keyboard modifier so the window only selects constraints, I tried a few but nothing seemed to work.  

    Maybe you should add an improvement request for this.

    What would be use cases for this functionality? Just curios..

    I think selection filter would sit nicely into 'Select other' menu which should be re-thinked anyway.

    Selecting all constraints to delete would be nice. Selecting all dangling constraints to delete would be really nice and then, of course, selecting all external constraints to delete would be great.

    I don't normally delete all constraints, but I do delete all dangling or all external constraints.

    TIP: Use the transform function (aka move) in a sketch to remove all (dangling) contraints.

    Actually, You can't choose them all at once, but you can press and hold the delete button and quickly choose them one right after another.
