cut/select
(OP)
Is there a way in acad2000 or 2004 to
enclose something like a connection on
a structure and select it for use as a detail ?
on our current cad system we have something called
cut select which allows us to enclosed an area
and cut/select this for use as details...

RE: cut/select
You need to switch to PS and create a viewport thru the VPORT command. Double click inside the viewport. Change the Zoom factor with ZOOM with the XP option. At the command prompt give AV (aerial view) command and use the scroll wheel and move to the detail you want to see. Hope this helps - John
RE: cut/select
but what i want to do is create a detail of
an area instead of redrawing it.
like on structures detailing connections
can i select or enclose an ara and use it
as a detail...possibly scaling it
a couple of times ...
RE: cut/select
Go to a layout tab
Type MVIEW and make a box
Double click in the box and zoom in to your detail
Double click outside the box, now you can move the box or resize it.
There are lots of other things you can do with viewports.
You will have ONE model and MANY views of it.
