2016 Fabrication - Elevation field for design line stopped clearing!

Anonymous
Not applicable

With 2014 and 2015, every time I restarted AutoCAD the elevations would clear from the "Elev" field in the design line window.

 

But with 2016 the drop down menu is now filled with hundreds of elevations (They've somehow multiplied).

 

How do I clear that field?  My drawing become extremely laggy now every time I try to type in an elevation.

The only way I have found to clear this history is to open the file in Est 2015 or Cadmep 2015, save it , then open back up in Est 2017 or Cadmep 2017. Have not tested on the Cad side but it works on the Est side.

 

I also don't like the elevation history being stored for the whole duration of the project file. I can see where it might come in handy for constant elevations in some instances but there should be a way to clear the elevation history just like in resetting the drawings numbers or sections. Please change this in the Fabrication 2017 products and future versions so we can manage the elevation history of runs and terminals on the entry tab for designline.
