Unable to delete dimensions Rhino 7

Rhino Rhino for Windows

Hi everyone,

I’m having trouble deleting dimensions in Rhino 7. I’ve tried several methods, but none seem to work:

  • The dimensions are not locked (I’ve used _Unlock and checked the layers).
  • I’ve tried using _SelDim to select all dimensions, but I still can’t delete them with _Delete.
  • I checked the history (_HistoryPurge) and disabled it, but the problem persists.
  • The dimensions are not grouped with other objects (_RemoveObjectsFromAllGroups didn’t help).
  • I’ve also tried _Purge with no success.
  • The dimensions are not on hidden or locked layers.

None of these methods seem to work, and I’m not getting any error messages in the console. Does anyone have an idea why I can’t delete dimensions or what else I could try?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Hi, @Sestan_Domagoj. Welcome to the forum.

Can you attach an example file for us to take a look at? Also, please attach or paste the results of Rhino’s SystemInfo command in your reply.

The file is larger than 20 MB, so I can’t attach it here. Could you please suggest an alternative way to upload the file

I hope I have uploaded the file correctly and that you can now see what the issue is. Once again, thank you for your help.

Hi, @Sestan_Domagoj. I think I found the solution, after searching our forum–which we encourage you to do before creating a post, too. Dimension lines: I cannot delete them - #18 by wim

Uncheck “Lock Children” after right-clicking Record History, then try deleting your dimensions (see below).
