Re: Draworder & file size

That's weird. Have you tried deleting them and then OOPSing them(without
using draworder), and then saving?

Using Autocad Map 3D 2006, I have a dwg in which when I set pickfirst to
1, then pick all polylines whose global width is 2500, then use
draworder to Bring to Front, then save, the drawing file size increases
from just over 20Mb to 26Mb. The dwg now takes twice as long to open or
save which is frustrating as I use this particular dwg a lot.
DRAWORDERCTL is set to 1 and there are no layer filters. If I wblock the
drawing out, the file size goes back to just over 20Mb and open much
quicker, but I have lost the draworder. Status reorts that:-

Could anyone offer any advice to speed up opening and saving times?

Thanks for any help.
