Find a reference to layer, maybe ilogic could help?

[Hunteil]

I have a template with a layer I can't purge. I cleaned everything up, including Sketch Symbols, Title Blocks and Styles and checked for anything referencing this single layer... But it won't let me purge it still.

So I was thinking... can ilogic be used to find where these are referenced and replace them with the corresponding ANSI layer?

i.e.

"TITLE" with "Title (ANSI)"

PS: Yes I went to each object and changed the layer to Standard. So the only thing I can guess is it's referenced in the border some how.

Hi @Hunteil 

Did you look at Sheet Formats? I think that is a common thing to be hanging onto styles.

I hope this helps.

I just deleted the sheet formats. Still can't purge.

Hi @Hunteil 

This will tell you if the layer is in cached local to the drawing, only in the library, or is in both... there might be some other info that can be reported that might help too if this doesn't help... I'll look at the API later to see if anything looks useful.I hope this helps.

    'change this name as needed
    oLayerName = "Sketch Geometry"

    Dim oLayer As Layer
    oLayer = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.StylesManager.Layers.Item(oLayerName)
	
	oLocation = Replace(oLayer.StyleLocation.ToString, "k", "")
	oLocation = Replace(oLocation, "StyleLocation", "")
		
	MsgBox("Style location(both, local, or style library) : " & vbLf & oLocation)
