[amine789]

What would you like to see added to PyNWB?

Hi i want to ask you to add a feature to remove PlaneSegmentations object, or any other objects without having to remove all the ImagePlane

Is your feature request related to a problem?

No it can be used across all objects

What solution would you like?

i want to have a pop method that delete an PlaneSegmentation object or any other object within same scope

Do you have any interest in helping implement the feature?

Yes.

Hi @amine789 if I understand your request correctly, you should already be able to do this:

Let's say you already have an NWBFile object with an ImagingPlane and you have an ImageSegmentation object called img_seg that contains a PlaneSegmentation object with name "PS". You can run the following:

img_seg.plane_segmentations.pop("PS")

The ImagingPlane remains in the file, but the PlaneSegmentation has been removed.

Here is a demonstration of that, following the ophys tutorial https://gist.github.com/rly/43f67f86c4bb3145efc785c01074bf1d

Let me know if that solves your issue.
