Hundreds of unwanted Surfaces reappearing in Surface Palette

[waydowntown]

Hi everyone

Shortly after starting any project with our standard office template, a couple hundred new surfaces always appear in the Surfaces palette. If we delete them using the attribute manager, it's just a matter of (short) time before they reappear in the palette. Now I'm pretty sure these are embedded in a library object (or family of objects) located within our own office library (let me know if you think I'm wrong on that). Is there any way of pinpointing which objects in our library  are linked with these surfaces so that we can remove them?

Incidentally the surfaces are all named Kling RAL. Does anyone know where this might originate from?

Thanks. I did fins a Shoegnome video below speaking to Copy/Pasting into a file, even a hotspot copied from one file to another, can bring in a host of unwanted stuff from the original file. Thanks for the reply.
