Linetypes from HELL

Recommended Posts

Tried to attach a blank drawing (but exceeds max size), which has been cleaned up as much as I can... purged, detached X-REFS, ran Superpurge, kicked around and otherwise abused...

Still cannot get rid of all these linetypes pickup up from copy & paste of another drawing.

Will post link to drawing as soon as I can upload to my server...

 

Any ideas??

 

Thanks!

My guess is, without seeing the full linetype name, you have tons of Microstation linetypes being loaded.

 

Have you tried the old trick of WBlocking out your drawing?

Nope, didn't work.

A tell tale sign something is a miss in that the "blank" drawing is 1.3MB.

Not good.

 

Take a peek at the drawing... maybe you will see something I am missing.

Well the linetypes were not from Microstation so I was wrong there. I think they may have been from an AutoCAD vertical product (Civil 3D?).

 

Anyway, I got the file size down to 56KB. Anything else you need me to do with it?

yeas please... tell me how you did it!

 

I have many many drawings that are in need of attention.

And I am only running LT 2012 here at work, but do have a LISP machine at home.. ACAD2015.

Thanks!

Lucky guess on that 7 of clubs though...

 

I will do research on that WBLOCK cleanup method and try it on some of these drawings.

I am thinking that this is a LT vs Full Version issue as I had another user running ACAD 08 Full Version simply WBLOCK the entire drawing and it cleaned it up nicely.

Did the exact same thing with this ACAD LT 2012 and did not work.

Thoughts?

 

And see if your magic is working this morning oh mighty one....

Ace of spades.

 

I could test your theory re: full AutoCAD vs. LT when I get back to the office on Monday. I am working off-site today.

YOU ARE GOOD.

Ok, thanks... keep me posted.

Anyone else test this out for me?

The dwg cleanup not the card trick...
