SanMiguel Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I had the same problem since we install AutoCAD 2013 on one our machines. Ever since then, anyone (w/ AutoCAD 2012 or earlier) that opened a drawing that was opened and saved on the machine w/ AutoCAD 2013, would get that message. After a little research, I found that by purging the drawing, with the purge command, then purging it again w/ the -PURGE command, entering "R" for reapps, and then executing the EXPORT command. Once you've done all that, close the drawing w/out saving, and reopen, and it would be fine. I think you could just EXPORT the drawing w/out all that purging, to get rid of the warning. Drawings tend to get so junked up w/ apps and junk, that eventually they begin to crash, or perform poorly, so I tend to get a little OCD about them. So I purge the you-Know-what out of them. Hope it helps. Judging by the date on these posts, this might come a little late, but in the case you haven't or was looking for another way, I hope this helps. holy cow.....this has solve my problem.....CAD Tutor is the best!!!

tktk Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 mjh, thanks for your post. I performed the purges ok. With EXPORT, can you explain which type of file I should export to ? My computer defaults to .fbx, but then said 'None of the specified objects can be exported. I didnt' actually select any objects to be exported, assuming it would just export everything.

Just run the WBLOCK command. Make sure you're in Model Space and your UCS is set to World. Then run WBLOCK and choose the "Entire Drawing" option. I get troublesome drawings sent to me all the time and running WBLOCK strips out all the garbage and gives me a nice clean file to work with.

tktk Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Cad64, thanks for the Wblock tip, it worked great. After that I tried to paste in some polylines and mtext from another file, these are items which generated the AEC note earlier. Now I don't get the AEC note, but I get ' _pastclip Duplicate definition of black _ARCHTICK ignored' and the paste didn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cad64 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 One thing you have to realize is that after you run WBLOCK and generate a new clean file, if you copy anything from another problematic drawing and paste it into your new file, you have now infected your clean file with all the same junk again. Try running WBLOCK on both files. Then do the copy and paste and see if you still have issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
