Ed_Orum Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 Yesterday, amid several other problems I was having with Chief, a message box popped up referencing a drawing I did two years ago. When I created my template file, I thought I purged everything except the CAD details. Is there a way to "clean up" a file so it does not reference any other files or inherit any properties from that file? Thanks, Lane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution JonathanK Posted November 11 Solution Share Posted November 11 If it's your template file that you're wanting to clean up, open up your template file, and then go to File>Save as Template. There is a dialog box that pops up that allows you to select everything you want to keep or remove. Part of that selection is to unlink all reference files. Then just save it as the same name, or rename it something else if you're not wanting to overwrite your old for some reason. Not sure if that's what you're looking for or not.

DBCooper Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 Try "tools->checks->referenced plans". In theory, it should show you all of your external references. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahaha....yes, in theory is the best! I'll give the theory a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
