Big File Size

Tom Krowka
Enthusiast
All of a sudden, a .pln has 38 mB file size. It is a small building, 4000 s.f., one story, minimum drawings. Have turned on all layers, opened each s/e, and layout, and fit in window to see what's what. Can't find anything out of the ordinary. No modules, no figures, no imports into the .pln of any kind that I can find.
Anybody got a clue, cause I don't.

Thanks.

We had a similar occurrence with a large project file last week (AC10, TeamWork) -- the file went from 50 Mb one day, to 40 Mb the next, and then down to 30-some Mb, with no significant changes made. I just assumed some corrupted element(s) may have been deleted, but I am curious as to what may have caused the file bloat.
