Xref layers deletion

Anonymous
Not applicable
I deleted an Xref without choosing to delete its attributes. How do I now delete all the Xref layers?

Another option is to see if you have Hot linked Modules attached to the file that are the ones that have the Xrefs.

OK, does work. Apparently you've got to press Apply before ok. Is this a Mac thing?

I think that it was mentioned on another post, the trick to remove X-Ref layers is to delete them using Attribute Manager instead of the Layers.

I think it is a bug that only happens when the file was "Teamworked" at some point.
I also had this problem where I detach the Xref and the layers don't disappear. So I did just this and works just fine. It also took me less than 30 sec.

My OCD wanna thank you so much right now!
