PURGEAECDATA (Command)

Removes the invisible AEC data (AutoCAD Architecture and AutoCAD Civil 3D custom objects) in the drawing at the Command prompt.

The PURGEAECDATA command does not purge drawings with attached xrefs. When a drawing to be purged contains visible AEC objects, the PURGEAECDATA command is canceled.

The following prompt is displayed.

Purge the Invisible AEC Data?

Specify Yes or No.

Note:

• Install the AutoCAD Civil 3D Object Enabler to purge the Civil 3D custom objects.
• Use PURGE to delete unused named objects such as block definitions and so on.
