Delete a Viewport

Delete a Viewport

Delete a Viewport

(OP)
Forgive what should be a basic question from a ACAd newbie;

I am in paper space and and created (while experimenting) a view port that covers the whole sheet and 2 more that split the sheet vertically.

How on earth do I now remove them - using "vports" and RMB on the only Named Viewport I can find "Active Model Configuration) and select delete does nothing.  Press ok to exit the dialogue box and command line is asking me to specify the first corner of a new viewport box...???

I am at a loss.


ACAD 2004, Win XP

thanks for any help.

RE: Delete a Viewport

If the layer they are on is ON and THAWED, then you just select the edge to delete it. You can also use QSELECT to "find" them. You could type in (ssget "X" '((0 . "VIEWPORT")))
and it should find them also (just type in ERASE then P (previous) to "get" them). Hope this helps.

Ahh, thanks borgunit.

I was trying to select borders while the model space was active... got it sorted now.
