Purge? Delete? Duplicate entities
Purge? Delete? Duplicate entities
(OP)
A co-worker asked me this question and I am stumped because I rarely use it. In fact, I don't think I've ever used it. Years ago there was a command (and the name of it escapes me right now) that would delete/purge duplicate entities/lines (or whatever) on the same layer. It was used to clean-up drawings and reduce the file size. Does anyone know what this command might be?
Thank you.
Thank you.

OVERKILL
Removes unneeded objects by deleting duplicates and combining line and arc segments that overlap.
Command: OVERKILL
Select objects: Use a selection method to select annotation objects
OVERKILL removes objects whose geometry is redundant. For example:
Duplicate copies of objects are deleted
An arc drawn directly over a portion of a circle so that the arc cannot be seen is deleted.
Two lines drawn at the same angle so that they partially overlap are combined to form a single line.
Duplicate line and/or arc segments within polylines are removed.
