The procedure below will delete the internal sp4 document within a Giza drawing file. You may be asked to follow this procedure to correct an issue with your Giza drawing that may be preventing you from saving or creating a Worksheet document correctly. Note: Deleting the internal sp4 document will remove any stored Visual Impression scenes from the drawing and they will need to be recreated.
- Fully exit all open instances of the Giza program. It is important that all drawings are closed, including the problem drawing.
- Reopen the Giza program and then open the drawing file that you are having the problem with.
- Once the drawing is open, open the Windows file explorer. A shortcut to open File Explorer is to press the Windows key + E at the same time.
- In the address bar near the top of the file explorer window, enter %temp% and press enter. This is a shortcut that will take you to the temp directory.
- Scroll down and locate a folder that will begin with the name gf_work._ and click to go into the folder.
- Delete the file in this folder named CDBASE.VISUAL
- Return to your Giza drawing and press Save to save the drawing.
- Test if the issue is now resolved.
