Ghost dimensions?

When I delete a sheet from a multi-model / multi-sheet drawing, dimensions that were shown on the deleted sheet show up as unattached/non-regeneratable dimensions on the remaining sheets. After I delete the associated model from the drawing, some of these dimensions disappear, but many remain. I have to delete those that don't clear.


Is there a way to prevent this?


Thanks in advance.

How I handle these:


-first I remove the sheets I no longer need (edit / remove / sheet)
-then I delete the models that were used on those sheets (properties / drawing models / delete)
-then I update the current sheet / sheets (view / update all sheets)


I know at one time I was experiencing the same thing as you and foundthat there is another way, a bit longer: first delete all views from a sheet then delete the sheet then delete the models then regenerate.


But now I'm using the first method and I have no problems. Maybe it's a PRO-E version thing. I have wf2.0 m240
