Batch Purge (Batch Files Cleaning)


This new function allows to batch purge the excess objects such as blocks, layers, line type, dimension style or text style on several DWG files. The Batpurge tool doesn't need to open files. It executes the command of purge directly, which makes it run with very high efficiency. You can access it from:

Menu : Express>Drawing Tools>Batch Purge

Command Entry : Batpurge

After the command is started, a dialog box will be displayed as shown in the picture below:
