Other viewports revert to zoom extents when clicked

Other viewports revert to zoom extents when clicked

(OP)
Problem # 1) I will have 2 to 4 viewports made one at a time.
Each viewport will show model space (Normal Function).
Enter one viewport by clicking on with mouse & adjust (zoom) to what part of the drawing I need. (Normal Function)
Click onto the next viewport to get another view and first view goes back to zoom extents. (NOT NORMAL)
This does NOT happen with all drawings which gets aggravating.
Problem # 2) I like my job & hate the office BS - like gossip!  I think I need Prozac!

RE: Other viewports revert to zoom extents when clicked

Try setting the UCSFOLLOW=0 (must be done for each viewport)and/or locking the viewports.

I knew there had to be something simple like a switch!
Thanks Bud!
It's nice to see people helping others.

If you enable your viewports toolbar, you don't have to activate model space to set the zoom of the viewport, but can select the viewport boundary and set the zoom using the toolbar.
