Unwanted zoom when changing to modelspace
Unwanted zoom when changing to modelspace
(OP)
As you might understand from the subject I have problem with my layouts. It seems like SOME of my layouts but NOT ALL have a current setting wich makes them zoom extents whenever I change from paperspace to modelspace.(Very frustrating)
The objects in the layouts that will zoom extents can be rotated by UCS but not in the other ones.
Can I keep the scale and switch from model and paperspace freely and still be abel to rotate the objects in the modelfile by the UCS?
I don´t want to lock the display.

One of many ways is to right click the viewport and then click on "Display Locked" and pick "Yes". Another is to put all your viewports on a layer, I use Defpoints and/or VPorts as my layers for the MViews. Then add the followoing to your Acad.lsp file:
(DEFUN C:VL ()
(COMMAND "LAYER" "THAW" "DEF*,VP*" "")
(COMMAND "MVIEW" "LOCK" "ON" "ALL" "")
(COMMAND "LAYER" "FREEZE" "DEF*,VP*" "")
)
(DEFUN C:VU ()
(COMMAND "LAYER" "THAW" "DEF*,VP*" "")
(COMMAND "MVIEW" "LOCK" "Off" "ALL" "")
(COMMAND "LAYER" "FREEZE" "DEF*,VP*" "")
)
;
(DEFUN C:VT ()
(COMMAND "LAYER" "THAW" "DEF*,VP*" "")
)
(DEFUN C:VF ()
(COMMAND "LAYER" "FREEZE" "DEF*,VP*" "")
)
;
These do Lock all Viewports, Unlock all, Freeze all and Thaw all.

Are you going from PS to MS with the mouse or keyboard? Try the keyboard.

I love you.

I am guessing it is a video driver issue. Also there are some bugs in LT 2002 with the UCSFOLLOW command in regards to Viewports, where AutoCAD will often ignore the variable.

I don´t have the problem when I switch from ucsfollow 1 to 0 and thats enough for me. At least for the moment.
