can anybody tell me just what i did to make all of this text appear in my floor plan?!

(it turns out it's a huge, huge text block that runs for about 10km (to scale!), but why?)

You pasted a text that was in the clipboard ...

but where did the text come from? how did it get into my clipboard? it's all archiCAD system frameworks and threads - almost like taking a sample of the running application's code or something . . . i'm sure that it happened from within archiCAD - possibly as a result of a hidden 'special menu' function . . ?

anyhow. it's not life threatening!
