Description

The Draft Heal command heals problematic Draft objects found in very old files. It tries to recreate the old objects from scratch and transfer their properties to the new objects.

Usage

1. Optionally select one or more problematic objects. If no objects are selected the entire document will be processed.
2. Select the Utilities → Heal option from the menu.
3. If no errors are found the command will do nothing.
