List of objects and styles using text styles

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have a perennial problem.  I'm trying to purge a text style and cannot find where it is being used.  At this point, I've deleted every object in the drawing and every style (excluding standard) for dimensions, leaders, and tables, and it's still coming up.  In addition to solving my problem, I think it would be useful as a general resource to have an exhaustive list of places a text style might be hiding.  I have checked:

 

Drawing objects:

Single-line text

Multi-line text

Dimensions

Qleaders

Mleaders

Tables

 

Styles:

Dimension

Leader

Table

Linetype

 

Anything else?

Welcome to the Forums

 

What is the text style?

 

At the command line type STYLE

 

When the dialog box pops up make sure STANDARD is set as the text style by double clicking on it. Try purging the style again.

Thank you.  I did set the active style to standard before attempting to delete the layer.  For now, I've renamed the style and modified it to replace another style which I actually need, but it bugs me that there's something in my drawing associating with that style that I don't know about.

You need more that AutoCAD alone to purge items that are buried too deep: unfortunately is an add-on that costs money and it will not run in LT.
