Trimming my account size down

ts_2ts_2 Member Posts: 22
I'm using free version, and Its telling me I'm over the 100 mb limit.  So I go into my scene files and delete stuff, and the number doesnt go down.  I realize everything is saved in versions and history.  There needs to be a nice obvious way to just DESTROY parts in a scene so they are gone forever and don't leave traces behind I think.  One of my project files has 2 small objects in them, and those can't take up that much room can they?   Or a delete history button.

    Hi @ts_2 a way to reduce the file size is make a copy of your document, this will purge all your version/history . Remember to also empty the trash, the files there count up in your storage. Lastly as you are already above the limit it probably wont allow you to make a copy privately, so make the file you want to copy public a few seconds while you copy the file. The file size sometimes does not update immediately so you know.

    @nav  I'll try that! Also, is there a way to see what an individual "Tab" is using in MB??

    I dont think you can see which tab is using what. Its the history that takes up most of the space anyway, a vast amount of space after a while.
