![]() ![]() There is a suggestion to use FLATTEN command to fix it. This is a 2D drawing, so it’s not supposed to look like this. If you rotate the drawing and see it from an elevation view, you will see the objects has elevations. But we never know, why the objects have Z value in the first place anyway. The probable cause is because you snap to an existing object with elevation. ![]() VP Plot Style overrides the style applied to the layer in the activated viewport.This is a classic issue with AutoCAD drawing: Sometimes you accidentally draw with elevation in your 2D drawing. VP Transparency overrides the plotted transparency of elements drawn on this Layer for the activated viewport. VP Lineweight overrides the plotted Lineweight of elements drawn on this layer for the activated viewport. VP Linetype overrides the plotted Linetype of elements drawn on this layer for the activated viewport. This can be especially important if using CTBs in order to get elements to print different values between viewports. VP Color allows you to override the printed colour of elements drawn on this layer for the activated viewport. VP Freeze controls the appearance of a Layer in the activated viewport. The following properties are available and control the individual viewports appearance. In addition to the usual properties (See module 03-Drawing Organisation for further details on Layer properties). Once a viewport is activated, from the Ribbon Home tab > Layers panel click the Layer Properties button. Layers can be turned on and off and displayed differently in individual viewports. ![]() Controlling Layers within Individual Viewports Once finished, click the Minimize Viewport button on the Application Status Bar to return to Paperspace with the scale and position of the view in the viewport unaffected. Maximising the viewport and working on the Modelspace in this way allows you to zoom in and make changes without affecting the scale or position of the view within the viewport. The viewport will be enlarged with a red border to indicate it is maximised. Click the Maximise Viewport button on the Application Status Bar to expand the activated viewport to the full screen. It is possible to make adjustments to content in Modelspace without switching back to the Model tab.Īctivate a viewport by double-clicking inside it. Once locked, the Viewport Scale is no longer adjustable. It is still possible to activate the viewport but zooming in or out will zoom in Paperspace, not in the viewport. Click the Lock Viewport button on the Application Status Bar. To lock a viewport, click on the viewport to select it. Once a viewport has been configured you may wish to lock it to prevent accidental changes to the view or scale. The viewport will zoom in or out to the chosen scale. To change the scale, first, click on the viewport to select it.Ĭhange the Viewport Scale from the Application Status Bar. The scale of the viewport can be modified from the Viewport Scale drop-down of the Application Status Bar. For example, a 1:100 plan would be drawn (or referenced) at full size in Modelspace, but be displayed in a Paperspace viewport with a viewport scale of 1:100. The viewport scale controls the scale at which these objects are displayed in the viewport. Objects in Modelspace are typically created full-size. You will also see the ViewCube and Navigation Bar inside the viewport. A thick border indicates it has been activated. It is possible to tell if a viewport is active by the viewport border. Zooming in or out in an active viewport will adjust the scale of the viewport. Objects in Modelspace can be selected and modified. This allows the view within the viewport to be adjusted. Polygonal: Creates a polygonal viewport with multiple lines and arc segments.įrom Object: Creates a viewport from an existing closed polyline, ellipse, spline, region, or circle.Ī viewport can be ‘activated’ by double-clicking inside the viewport. Rectangular: Creates a rectangular viewport by specifying the two opposite corners. Creating ViewportsĮxpand the Rectangular drop-down to see the various viewport options. Viewports can be created from the Ribbon View tab > Viewports panel.Ĭommand-line: To start the Viewport tool from the command line, type “ MV” and press. A layout can have multiple viewports of different shapes. ViewportsĪ viewport is a “window” created in a Paperspace layout that displays the information generated in the Modelspace to a specified scale. This module will help you to understand how to create viewports in your layout at the required scale.
