    I've had this a couple times before but never found a solution.

    Customer supplied drawing

    ZOOM E changes the EXTMIN values everyother time

    It goes from -1.02,-1.02,0 ( which is correct ) to very large numbers
    -273465,-343214,-1324

    They aren't any entities there
    Limits are OFF and small
    No saved views
    No saved UCS
    No blocks ( LINES ARCS CIRCLES TEXT Only )
    All model space entities
    WBLOCKED out the entire drawing
    RECOVERED


    Any suggestions? -David

  2. Start a new drawing, insert bad drawing as editable. Does it still happen
    then?

    I had a similiar problem and found out about the extexts system variable. Set it to 2 and it tracks the extmin and extmax variables more accurately. (Setvar "ENTEXTS" 2)
