Purge Unused Mode
Why do people keep telling us to do Purge Unused 3 times and not just once?
We told our app RV FamilyPurge the same, and that’s why it always does Purge Unused 3 times in each family and nested family it checks.
- The first Purge will delete family types no longer in use,
- The second Purge will remove obsolete materials (used by the family types deleted previously),
- The third Purge then cleans up material assets previously used by the removed materials.
Now you know the number three here is nothing arbitrary!
