Printing leader's arrowheads when layers closed...

[Steevy_ray]

Hey everyone,

 

I have a big problem here with one of my project. There's many multileaders in one of my Xref and their layer are all turned off. None appears in the model and paper space but their arrowheads are still printing... Someone knows how i can clear my print without deleting all these multileader ?

 

Thanks

I see you also posted this yesterday, here: http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?t=32207

and no one has responded.

 

I don't have any experience using multileaders, so all I can think of is a layer issue: are the arrowheads standard AutoCAD arrows, or are they user-defined? If they are the latter, and the block contains another layer, that could be the cause of the problem.

weird ghost arrows!! I've had a similar problem ages ago! Do they go if you delete them have you tried that?

I would freeze the layers rather than turn them off. Hope that works for you.

I use user-defined arrowheads. I exploded one multileader to get my arrowhead block and i exploded my block. I put the solid in the text layer and recreated my block. Previous, i deleted all multileaders that were using this arrowhead and i purged to delete this block from the drawing. After i recreated block, i reput my missing multileaders with the new arrowhead block. I saved my Xref and open the other drawing (the one that keeps printing arrowheads). Nothing looked wrong again on the model and paper space but when i click preview when i plot, arrowheads still appear...

OH it seems to works ! I froze layers instead of turning them off. Someone can tell me the difference between them ?

 

Thanks everyone !

Hey, would you look at that! Perfect timing! I had the exact same thing happen to me a half hour ago and I was trying to troubleshoot it myself. I happened to look on here and tried the suggestion and it worked! Sweet!
