defman Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Hi, I have a sheet set in papaperspace that is acting up. When I zoom extents in paperspace, the titleblock & drawing shift to the left leaving a large "open" area to the right. I have tried "regen" and zooming way out in an attempt to erase any mysterious object. I have made sure that all layers were on & unlocked. Any suggestions on what to try next?

ReMark Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Attach a copy of the drawing to your next post. I'm pretty sure someone here can find and remove the mysterious object causing the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobDraw Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Purging empty and zero length geometry might get rid of the offending element. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBox Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Could also be hidden entities, such as points (PDMODE), or attributes (ATTMODE), etc. as well - without a drawing, we're left to speculate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeyTurnip Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I had this in paperspace make sure all layers are switched on and thawed Press and hold Crtl + A everything will select including the stuff you cant see you may find its insertion points for entities/blocks in the paperspace you want. if its stuff you want rid of then hold shift and drag a box around everything you want to keep press delete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defman Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 The file is too large to attach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defman Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 Cool trick. But it didn't work for my problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobDraw Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 We don't need the entire file. Get rid of everything in model space. Have you tried any of the suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defman Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 AH HAH! My title block is referenced in. I was going to strip everything I didn't want to send (eng. stamp, etc.) as an attachment. I got smart and tried monkey turnips remedy in the titleblock file. TA DA! Thanks everybody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
profcad Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 When using CTRL-A to select objects, by default, AutoCAD only show grips on 100 objects. To show more grips, increase the value of the system variable GRIPOBJLIMIT. I set it to the max, which is 32767. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
