Proxy Objects Keep Replicating After Nuking or Cleaning

Issue

You've cleaned a drawing by running our Nuke tool, and you're noticing that Proxy Objects are continuing to replicate themselves and corrupting the drawing.

Step 1: Remove the Proxy Objects

 

Type QSelect in the command line, and press Enter.

 

 

In the Quick Select dialog box, select the Proxy Object option from the Object Type menu.

 

 

 

Click OK.
