Exercise 2: Creating View Frames

In this exercise, you will use the Create View Frames wizard to quickly create
view frames along an alignment.
View frames are rectangular areas along an alignment that represent what is
displayed in the associated viewports on the layouts (sheets) to be created.
Before you create view frames, you must have the desired alignment already
in your drawing. Depending on the type of sheets you want to produce (plan
only, profile only, or plan and profile), you may also need to have a profile
already created. If you are creating plan only sheets, then you do not need to
have a profile in the drawing.
For more information, see the AutoCAD Civil 3D Help topic Creating View
Frames.
