      Hello,
      I have created a rather large and detailed model that produces a 25 MB file. I made a copy of the file, then deleted a bunch of stuff that had a lot of detail, so that I could easily email it to someone who just needed to see some basics. After I deleted the objects, the file size didn't change. How can I reduce the size of the file?

        Deleting stuff doesn't actually remove everything from the file.
        Go to Window/Model Info/Statistics and click Purge Unused...
        For starters.
