How to remove stubborn layers?

share] How to remove stubborn layers? Method 1: Turn off the useless layers, select them all, COPY and paste them into a new file, and those useless layers will not be pasted. If you have defined a block in this unnecessary layer and inserted this block in another layer, then this unnecessary layer cannot be deleted using this method.   Method 2: Select the graphics you want to keep, and then select File menu->Output->Block File. Such block files are the selected graphics. If there are no specified layers in these graphics, these layers will not be saved in the new block graphics.   Method 3: Open a CAD file, close the layer you want to delete first, leaving only the visible graphics you need on the drawing, click File-Save As, determine the file name, and select * .DXF format, click Tools-Options-DXF Options in the pop-up dialog window, then check the Select Object box, click OK, and then click Save. You can choose to save the object. Select the visible or to-be-used graphics to confirm the save. After completion, exit the file you just saved and open it again. You will find that the layers you do not want are gone.   Method 4: Use the laytrans command to map the layer to be deleted to layer 0. This method can delete layers that have solid objects or are defined nested by other blocks.

I always use the PURGE command.

If it is a layer in a block, it cannot be deleted using the PURGE command.

The default layer cannot be deleted, which is very annoying.

Make a mark first and look at it later when you need it.

You should also be able to remove these layers using cleanup, which is what I did.
