FS#261

Hello,
Just started with the program. I opened drawing made under 2.2 pro to modify it. Everything works ok (deleting entities) but as soon as I start removing unused layers, I get an error message when trying to save my work (photo attached). The previouly saved file becomes an empty file...Working on Win7x64, logged as admin.

Could you attach the DXF file (or e-mail it to us to avoid sharing it)?

Did you try to save the file to another location (e.g. c:\Users\Isa_JJ\arbre.dxf)?

Thanks.

I tried changing location, no difference. I'm e-mailing the sample files. It seems to go fine until I start removing deleting un-necessary layers.

To reproduce:
- open file 'Arbre retouche.dxf'
- delete layer 'filet'
- Save As

Assert:
in file RDwgExporter.cpp, line 190

QCAD only deletes all entities in the current block on layer 'filet' when layer 'filet' is deleted. Other blocks also contain entities on layer 'filet' which are orphaned.
