Create And Modify Layout Viewports - Autodesk 057B1-41A111-1001 - AutoCAD LT 2010 User Manual

If you set the scale in the layout viewport before you access model space, you
can lock the scale to prevent changes. When the scale is locked, you cannot
use ZOOM while you work in model space.

Create and Modify Layout Viewports

You can create a single layout viewport that fits the entire layout or create
multiple layout viewports in the layout. Once you create the viewports, you
can change their size, their properties, and also scale and move them as needed.
NOTE
It is important to create layout viewports on their own layer. When you are
ready to output your drawing, you can turn off the layer and output the layout
without the boundaries of the layout viewports.
With MVIEW, you have several options for creating one or more layout
viewports. You can also use COPY and ARRAY to create multiple layout
viewports.
Create Nonrectangular Layout Viewports
You can create a new viewport with nonrectangular boundaries by converting
an object drawn in paper space into a layout viewport.
