How do you clear the selection?

I tried to use the one on the original post, but I cannot figure out how to make it work. As a test I tried a script and run as noted by the OP.

```auto
del self.props.get('selection').get('active').get('data')[-1]

```

I also tried manually seting the property to `[]` or 0, but If I am not mistaken thats readonly.

```auto
self.props.selection.active.data = []

```
