If you can not purge a layer that is not used, even in a block, than mostly
it contains invisible objects.
Invisible objects are for instance Text that contains spaces or Blocks that
do not contain any objectst.
You can not erase those objects because yo can not select them with a
crossing or window.
You can only select them with the option keyword ALL.
Do the following:
1: Thaw, On and Unlock all layers.
2: Go to Model
3: Zoom All.
4: Activate ERASE.
5: Type in: ALL
6: De-select everything on your screen with a crossing (pressing
).
7: Press to end selection.
8: Repeat 3 - 7 in all layouts.
9: Try to purge your layer.

> I've got some layers in my drawing that absolutely have nothing on them
and they are not referenced by any blocks, but I cannot purge them out.
Seems that sometimes when this has happened if I delete all of the viewports
(even though the viewport is not on that layer) I can then purge out the
layer(s). I have too many viewports in my current drawing to do this. Any
ideas on how to get rid of these layers?
