Use multiple viewports
Tools tab > Settings group > View divide |
You can divide the drawing area into a maximum of 64 simultaneous viewports.
Do the following:
-
Open a layout that you want to divide into multiple viewports.
-
Select Viewport > Layout viewports > Create many.
-
Select the number of viewports you want to create.
-
If you selected to create two or three viewports, enter the orderof the viewports.
-
Select the corners of the area where you want to create viewports.
The program creates the viewports.
For each viewport, you can define their own:
-
View limits – You can show parts of the drawing in different scales in different viewports.
-
Grid status – You can set a different grid spacing to different viewports.
-
Origin
-
Coordinate angle
-
Different isometric crosshair angle – For more information, see Set isometric crosshair.
You can change into another viewport by clicking the viewport. The frame of the viewport becomes thicker, indicating that it is now the current viewport. Note that the viewports in the layout view are not the same as in printing view.
You can change from one viewport to another in the middle of a command. For instance, you can enter the start point of a line in one viewport and the end point in another.
