Blocks *D....

[Anonymous]

When I remove the blocks from drawing by command "ThisDrawing.Blocks (name) Delete" then it is automaticly created block with name " *D...." for example *D170. You can find these blocks on purge list in blocks section.

Does anyone know why these blocks are created and how remove these blocks using VBA without command PURGE ?

This problem I have only with blocks which containing dimensions.

Hi,

>> block with name " *D...."

that are unnamed blocks. And these blocks are used internally by AutoCAD to have some Elementtypes displayed in different ways (like dimensions, dynamic blocks, in early AutoCAD-times also for hatches).

So you may get it deleted but AutoCAD will recreate them when it needs it.
