Tools >> Erase All Non-Text Drawings
Tools >> Erase All Text

When I try to clean up the charts in a chartbook by using the "Erase All ..." commands above, the drawings do not remain erased.

What might explain this situation?

The drawings were not copied from one chart to another.

If the Chart with drawings is the product of a "Duplicate Chart" command, would that explain why these zombie drawings will not delete permanently?

Is there a work around?

The only reason a drawing would not erase with the Tools >> Erase options, given what you have stated, would be if the drawing was locked. Refer to the information here:

When this occurs, just open the Manage Chart Drawings window (MCD) and you can unlock and delete the drawings from there.
