hidden paperspace objects

[defman]

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?

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.

Purging empty and zero length geometry might get rid of the offending element.

Could also be hidden entities, such as points (PDMODE), or attributes (ATTMODE), etc. as well - without a drawing, we're left to speculate.

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

The file is too large to attach.

Cool trick. But it didn't work for my problem.

[RobDraw]

We don't need the entire file. Get rid of everything in model space.

 

Have you tried any of the suggestions?

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.

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.
