In-Depth Information
AutoCAD LT doesn't support view types. The New View dialog box in LT
is missing the View Type list box, most of the Settings drop-downs, and the Back-
ground area shown in Figure 12-4.
7. In the Boundary area, select the Current Display radio button, if it's not selected
already.
If you want to save a different view boundary, select the Define Window
radio button instead, click the Define View Window button to the right of it, and
pick two corners of the region's boundary (as if you were zooming windows).
8. Confirm or change the choices in the Settings area.
If you select the Save Layer Snapshot with View check box, when you later restore
the view, AutoCAD also will restore the layer visibility settings (on/off and freeze/
thaw) that were in effect when you created the view. (Chapter 6 describes the layer
visibility settings.) The Live Section and Visual Style settings are primarily for 3D
drawings; these two settings are not included in AutoCAD LT.
9. Click OK.
The New View/Shot Properties (New View in AutoCAD LT) dialog box disappears,
and you see your new named view in the list in the View Manager dialog box.
10. Click OK.
The View Manager dialog box disappears.
To restore a named view, proceed as follows:
1. Go back to the Ribbon's View tab and choose View Manager from the View pan-
el.
Alternatively, type
VIEW
(or
V
) and press Enter. The View Manager dialog box ap-
pears.
2. In the Views list, expand either Model Views or Layout Views (depending on
where you saved your view).
3. Click the name of the view that you want to restore, click the Set Current button,
and then click OK to close the dialog box.
