whoaaaa never seen anything like that before! Keep all FYI comments but warn of bloat... LOL almost looks like some kind of easter egg you found. What prompted that?

I just opened a project that contains only drafting elements and up popped the dialog.

Took me back a bit.

It looks to me like it could be a note that a programmer put in there to remind himself to create a warning and it never got created. Just a guess...

I had received this message as well during a training seminar for Revit MEP 2009. The software engineer had no clue.This was at an Autodesk Training facility.

Still have the journal file for that session? Might take a look to see what else it says. What Steve says is probably true, a trapped error that didn't get its proper dialog message. Looking at your screen capture it looks like a lot of little line segments and Revit usually warns when many line segments are used as a performance issue. It is probably related to that.

I do not have the journal session from that message.

[patricks]

Why not? Revit writes to a journal file for the duration that the program is running. It doesn't create separate ones for every file.

This was at a training seminar's computer not my office workstation.

I think Steve was asking the original thread author if he had a journal file.
