Can't delete Text Style (Not in use) in template file

Can't delete Text Style (Not in use) in template file

Anonymous

Hi,

 

I try to make a template file which is clean when I want to start a new project.

I used for that an drawing with a very good layer structure.

Now I started deleting dimstyles I don't use. 

Could delete everything a wanted.

 

Then I went to the textstyle, could olso delete the most of the styles,

but there is one, called ROMANS, which I can not delete.

 

Except the organisation in paper space there is nothing left in the drawing.

I searched on different fora, and I read some things about LISP or PURGE or something.

 

But I'm not conviced of it works and I have no idea how to use LISP and PURGE...

Important to know: I use Autocad LT 2015 on mac

 

I put the file in attachment.

When you go to FORMAT_TEXTSTYLES... you can see ROMANS in the list.

 

Is someone enable here to find where in the drawing I used ROMANS so I can delete this, 

and delete it olso from my TEXTSTYLES...

 

Thanx in Advance!

Kind Regards,

 

Mathias

Thank you for your quick answer and your help!

 

for PURGE, did you use purge all?

and with AUDIT, did you use "fix it"?

 

Now I delete my drawing in the dwg that i uploaded before.

When i try your steps in my current drawing it won't go away...

 

If you have time, could you take a look at my current drawing?

 

Thanks in advance...again! 🙂

 

kind regards,

 

Mathias

I am able to recreate your problem in the DWG you just posted. The 'RSA interieur' and 'RSA layout' styles won't go away.

To circumvent the issue, I would import everything you need into a new empty drawing. Using the Design Center you can copy things like layers, block definitions, text styles, etc pretty fast between drawings. (press ctrl+2 to open it)


Best regards

thanx a lot!
that was the problem indeed!

How did you find it? 😛
It was so small...

It was an downloaded block, I didn't make it myself...
so that's why i didn't know the text was there 🙂

thanx a lot again! 🙂
