I am currently completing an old project which had a 36 hole layout. I am reducing it to an 18 hole layout and also reducing the main nest area. I have deleted the textures and have gradually reduced the plot by means of the CA course properties route and redcing the X-Y measurements. However it will let me go so far. There is more to reduce but I get the error message "There are objects outside the course boundaries you have set. The course cannot be sized smaller than the objects it contains".

This is wierd as there are no objects or even texture plots near the area I am trying to reduce. Any ideas please?

Tot :(

The way we are playing here you might want to throw the clubs in the lake. If you throw the clubs in the lake, you might miss the lake.

No course in the works: retired.

Not sure what the problem is, but is it possible there are still flag positions or shot paths outside the plot ?

I realize that you may have already tried this but try dragging a box around the area you are want to delete, this should show up any small plants that you may have missed

There are no objects been planted on this area of the course. Indeed as a test I deleted all objects on the plot, saved as a different tca; checked in project properties that objects are zero; tried again to reduce plot and got the same error report.
Regarding shot path and pins, there are none near where the reduction will be.

Is this another peculiarity of CA?

Your suggestions gave me a new idea.
I increased the plot by 100 yards. Drew a shape on the right hand edge, dropped then picked up with children. That gave a small shape (used as a tee) on its own outside a nest area. I deleted this together with the new shape drawn and bingo, I was up and running again reducing the plot size.
So the moral of this is that the warning message "objects" can include terrain shapes too. This is some more useful info for the design community.
