Workpoint Erase All ( Drawing Editor )

Tool summary :

  • Automatically deletes all workpoints that are on shown comment layers in your current drawing.
  • Since Workpoint Erase All results in your current drawing having no workpoint, extension dimensions will be measured from the drawing's 0, 0 coordinate or, for standard details, from the standard detail reference point .
  • Shown comment layers are visible comment layers (layers marked " Show "). Since Workpoint Erase All only works on visible comment layers, you can -- prior to activating this tool -- turn off particular comment layers to exclude workpoints that are on those layers from being deleted.
  • The selection of objects that is made prior to using Workpoint Erase All does not affect the operation of the tool, but the tool does affect the selection. All selected items are automatically deselected as a result of Workpoint Erase All .
  • To invoke Workpoint Erase All and delete all workpoints that are on visible comment layers:

    Method 1 : Click the Workpoint Erase All icon. The icon can be taken from the group named ' Objects -- Workpoints ' and placed on a toolbar (classic) or the ribbon (lightning).
