Piiroinen "virus"

[Anonymous]

Is anyone else having this problem? Every so often, AC loads about 50 or so PIIROINEN surfaces. I can delete them, but after using the program for about a week, they are all back! Is this coming from an object? A library? A list? A schedule? Can anyone help me get rid of this crap that seems to be embedding itself in my templates, projects, etc.??

I would search all of your linked libraries for instances of these "MASTER_GDL..." files. They are the ones that usually create attributes.

The other possibility is that you have Library Parts that contain those attribute definitions and when any one of those are placed the attributes are created even if they were removed previously.

You can always tell if an attribute is being generated from a 'master_GDL' file because its name will appear in italics in the element settings.
This won't help you find it but you can be sure it will always come back unless you can eliminate the source master_GDL.

Guys, these are really good ideas! I'm going to run through everything again.

I also love the HOTLINK for presentation and rendering idea! That's genius!
