AutoCAD 2013 :: Linking A Paperspace Viewport With A Named View

Nov 21, 2012

I am working on a rendering on vanilla AutoCad 2013, and I am getting frustrated with having to reset my viewport to the named view every time I move my camera.

I know that when you create a viewport you can call up a named view, but is there any way to link it permanently?

AutoCAD .NET :: Setting PS Viewport Named View

Jan 5, 2012

I have code that has the user select a viewport.  I then need to set the selected viewport to an existing view, but I cannot find any exampes of this.

I have the viewport, but how do I get the ViewPortTable/ViewPortTableRecord from it?

Do I need to set the view in the ViewPortTableRecord od the ViewTableRecord?

No problems to this point...
 
'Code snipIf acPrmpt_res.Status = PromptStatus.OK Then
Dim acVPort As Viewport = Nothing
Dim acViewTbl As ViewTable
Dim acViewTblrec As ViewTableRecord
[Code] ........

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Get Viewport Menu To Set View Type

Oct 30, 2012

Just switforeveched to AutoCAD 2013 from 2011. I kept the classic interface as I did since forever. This is the problem I am having now. After I created a viewport in a layout, I right click on the viewport border fully expecting a menu to come up so I can set the type to be 2d hidden. But nothing like that occurs. The help menu came up. How do I get the viewport menu to set the view type?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Why Can't Modify Paperspace Viewport

Dec 4, 2012

When working in a paperspace layout I am not able to move or re-size the default viewport. Upon selecting the viewport and attempting to move it I receive the following command line message: "1 was not in the working set." The viewport appears to be fixed and non-editible. What does the message mean? Would putting the viewport in the working set make it editable, and if so, how is this done?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Viewport - Switching Between Model And Paperspace

Jul 9, 2012

Am using Autocad 2012 with SP2 downloaded, note the problem does not occur in Autocad 2013... So basically if you open the dwg you will see it opens in paperspace, the viewport is locked to a specific scale etc. Now go into model space where the dwg is, you should be able to zoom around, pan etc fine, problem is when you now go back into the layout or paperspace. You will notice that upon re-entering paperspace that the vport is highlighted, ie there is a thicker outline of the vport boundary, however am still in paperspace according to the tabs. When you now try zooming in or out using the mouse scroll you will notice an additional copy of the viewport is imprinted on the screen. Thats the problem.  Doing a few undos will set you back right again. 

So far we are inclined to think that its either something to do with the UCS or the units that the program is getting confused with but havent been able to find a solution. Also bear in mind that it seems to work fine in 2013. Its probably something really simple that we've missed but thought would try anyway Will attach the dwg file.

AutoCAD LT :: 2012 - Xref Rotate In Paperspace Viewport

Nov 10, 2011

I was in paperspace, clicked in the viewport to do something in model space and a compass with north south east and west showed up in the top right corner of my viewport.  When I clicked on it, my x-ref rotated.  How in the world do I re create this?  I have no clue how I even accessed it or what command prompted this to happen.

AutoCad :: Layer States In Paperspace Viewport Don't Save

Dec 12, 2011

issue I'm having in my plot files. The way our office sets up our drawings is that we have a set of base files (which is where we do all our plans and details, etc), and then those drawings get xrefed into a different files located in a "plot" folder that that has our titleblock and viewports of the xrefed base files.

The problem is that the plot files have started to NOT save any of my layer states that are associated with the base files. For example, I have a base floor plan that has demolition, construction, RCP layer states that are toggled with LMAN. But if I open the plot file for the RCP and set up the viewports so only the RCP layers are visible...the next time I open the drawing the RCP layer state is abandoned...now ALL the layers are on and I need to redo the viewport layer states...

AutoCAD 2010 :: Plot Drawing With A Viewport In Paperspace

Jan 10, 2012

I am trying to plot a drawing with a viewport (of a 3D planview) in paperspace. The viewport has the "3D Hidden" shade plot property applied. The plot preview shows all the entities color-by-layer. I am plotting with a plot style that assigns all colors to black. Typically the plot preview shows all linework black when plotting with this plot style applied. The resulting plot (from an Oce tds700) shows the linework in a "grayscale" quality, not the normal solid black linework typically associated with a 2D viewport plotted on the same plotter with same plot style.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Moving Paperspace Viewport In Modelspace?

Jul 26, 2012

Is there a way to see and move paperspace viewport boundaries in model space?

Explaining: You have created layout which includes multiple viewports with different scale and size (view, section). Now you copy the layout to create a new layout with with same viewports. Now you have to change the view in all viewports. I have used technique where you double-click in viewport and you navigate in modelspace (pan/zoom) until you reach the right position.

The problem is If you have like 100 layouts with 10 viewports each, it takes very long time to pan the views into right position.

I have a some theories:

1.  If I could see the viewports in modelspace, I could drag them all into right position without navigating them one-by-on in paperspace.

2. If I could pan the view in viewport by specific amount lets say 10m to the right.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Paperspace Text Over Viewport Disappears?

Dec 5, 2012

why the text and leaders placed over viewports (in paperspace) keeps disappearing? The text is still there...just not visible. i can select the text with no problem. and if i move it off of the viewport then i can see it just fine. this is happening with all the viewports in my drawings... on all tabs.  If i close the drawing and reopen then all the text appears again.....but when i switch tabs then come back...the text vanishes again.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Can Add Named View Control To Quick Access Toolbar?

Dec 8, 2011

I've made a failed attempt to add the RIBBONCONTROL Named Views to the main Quick Access Toolbar. The Customize User Interface dialogue box (CUI) seems to allow me to drag the Named Views  RIBBONCONTROL from the command list to Quick Access Toolbar 1. I don't see the "forbidden" icon and the blue insert bar shows up when I perform the drag operation.

However, I suspect there is some compatibility issue, because the command doesn't pop up when I release the mouse button at the end of the drag operation. Using command QUICKCUI and trying to drag Named Views RIBBONCONTROL directly to the Quick Access Toolbar (on screen) seems to be allowed likewise, but doesn't work also.

Using the regular View Manager Dialogue is not the kind of solution I'm looking for, because in the View Manager it takes at least twice as much mouse clicks to change to another view.

Any way to reach the desired customization? Should it be reported as a bug to Autodesk?

AutoCad :: Model Space View To Match Viewport View?

May 14, 2013

Let’s say you have a large building plan in model space but there is only one small area of the building that the view port is looking at. Is there a way that you can draw around that viewport and then take that into model space and paste it in the same place so now you have the same area located in both views?

At the moment I need to try and work out where the view is by drawing a rectangle around the correct area of the building and this is time consuming.

I could then trim/delete everything else outside that box.

AutoCad :: Align Paperspace View With Modelspace Rectangle

Nov 30, 2011

Is there a way to align a modelspace rectangle to viewport extents in paperspace? My situation is that I have several page 'layouts' (complete with paper size boundaries and title blocks) drawn in 2D modelspace, as this is how I have been plotting up until now. I am trying to set up these 'layouts' in actual paperspace Layout Tabs for batch processing, and I would like a way to position my view within a viewport so that the recatngle that I have drawn in modelspace snaps to the viewport extents. I am sure this is a 'day1' type of question, but I'm very new to paperspace Layouts.

AutoCad :: Automatic Swap From Model To Paperspace When Working In Model Through Viewport

Nov 20, 2012

I just got back from maternity leave and I left work at Autocad 2011 and came back on Autocad 2013. I work thru my viewports in my model space, and I've noticed that when I pan and zoom in or out or move to quickly from one point to another (didn't notice which) my model space swaps to paper even if I'm in a command. Is this something I can deactivate?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Multi View Blocks Displaying Incorrectly In Object Viewer And Paperspace

Apr 30, 2013

I'm pretty new to using multi view blocks and rendering etc etc... basically all I want to do is show my surface (lake and landscaping) as grass, show a clear blue hatch to represent the water line and add some multi view blocks.. people and trees...

Using the multiview blocks toolpalette I have dragged and dropped some blocks into model space and ensured they are at the correct elevation to sit on the surface...

I have noticed that only one of the multi view blocks within the landscape tab is showing as I would expect - the rest all look like an extruded cross... I don't know how to fix this or whether this is correct.
