How can I delete blocked SHX comments? File saved from AutoCAD

    This topic has been closed for replies.
    Correct answer try67

    Many thanks! I downloaded and installed the script for you, it works. But unfortunately, very slowly, even in the example file, with a small number of blocked comments, 450 comments in 4 minutes. Usually, I need to delete 6000-7000 thousand comments.


    I'm implemented some changes that should help it go faster. Download it from the same location and try it again.

    You have to unlock them first. Right-click it, select Properties and untick the Locked check-box.

      Thank you for taking the time to my questions, but the problem is that the Comment is not blocked. The checkbox is empty in the properties, I conclude that AutoCAD does this when converting to PDF.

      Ideally! thank you so much! The last question: IS IT POSSIBLE TO DELETE BY FILTER, only those comments that have Test in the THEMA properties?


      It's not possible to know which comments are displayed and which are not, no. It is possible to manually filter them in the script itself, based on various criteria.
