Hi all, I tried to export a Capture project file in DXF format ( with command "save as.." ).the Dxf file was created but bigger that the original.( 27 192 ko for the CaptureFile and 290 782 ko for DxF file ). When this new file are open with AutoCad, many deleted object in Capture become visible in AutoCad.. Any suggestion? Regards Laurent

Hi,

Deleted objects should obviously not "come back". However, perhaps you have actually hidden then or placed them in hidden layers?

Hi, I verified and I have no hidden object, or hidden layer. Capture seems to keep in memory all the displacements object( move/ removed...maybe " Undone Command"?) for restore them at a DWG conversion. Maybe I did not use the right method to export to DWG? can be "purged" before drawing to export (as in AutoCad)? Regards Laurent

Objects to remain in memory after Delete for the purpose of Undo/Redo, but I'm farily sure they will never be exported. If you send the project file to support@capturesweden.com we can take a look at it!
