In this video I will tell you about managing the visibility in viewport.
So we have made this drawing and we have added lots of different viewpoints and different layouts in
the previous list and we've also added this elevation layout in which we have these two different viewpoints.
And the first one we have the first television and here we have the east elevation.
Now all of these drawings are currently assigned on different layers and the property will behave uniformly
for all of these drawings as they are connected directly to the margin space.
So if you go to Mars in space and here if you change the layout assignment of any one of the objects
for example in this case we have the blocks.
Let's go to the dropdown and for this blog here I'll turn it off the visibility and all of the blogs
in this floorplan the east elevation and the television will be turned off.
So that will effect uniformly.
Now I'll turn it on and I'll move back to the old so here in the old view we have some different settings
also.
So using these settings we can change the properties of a specific viewport only to explain this and
just move this lay out over here and then click on live properties manager.
Now this pallet will pop up.
Here we have the common properties of the layer.
And if you change any of these properties it will universally change the property of objects in all
of these viewport.
But when you scroll this layer property manager little bit over here you'll see some properties which
are specific to the viewport.
Right now you may not be able to see the name tag.
So right click on any one of them and select this maximize all columns so that you maximize it and now
you'll be able to see the name of these columns.
So here we have this new recipe freeze all new viewport freeze.
And here we have the viewport freeze.
So let's look at this one.
And here you can simply see the block and it's viewport freeze option.
So let's not freeze the visibility of this blocks layer.
So before that we need to activate the viewport.
So I double click on this viewport and this viewport is now active.
Now click on this V-P freeze and look at the blocks so we don't have the blocks here.
Also the second block has been removed but we still have the block here although they are on the same
layer.
So right now this change is affecting only this viewport.
So I'll look outside.
And now I'll move to this next layer.
So in this case we have text in both of these viewport.
Let's click on this one.
And now they are both seamless.
So I'll turn off this so I'll freeze it.
And here the text has been hidden.
But in this case in this layout the text is still visible.
So this way we can change the properties selectively for different viewport using these live options.
You can really change these options and the freeze and thaw option but you can also change some other
options which are related to the viewport for example.
And this is called Little retort right side.
And here we have the viewport line read option here in this case let's say that we want to change the
line weight off this viewport.
So I'll double click here.
And now here we have the zero lead and change its line rate and and assign a line weight of point five
and then click on OK that will click outside.
Now the line of objects in this viewport are change.
So when you zoom into this you'll notice the difference in this case the line which can be clearly seen.
And here we have the normal default line red and the difference is quite well now.
So I'll once again double click inside and I'll change the line rate to its default value and click
on.
OK.
Nardo outside.
So now let's click on this close I can to close the lid properties manager in most of the cases.
And this viewport boundary is a big distraction and we may not want this viewport bonder to be visible
in many of the cases.
So in order to hide these viewport you can use a workaround so you can create a new layer and go to
properties manager click on this nuclear and I'll give it a name so I named as we be press ENTER NOW
you can put these objects the viewport boundaries on the VB layer and now you can freeze this VBA.
So click on the drop down and freeze it.
Now we don't have the viewport Bhandari we still have the object.
If we don't click here the viewport will be active.
You can zoom in zoom out or you can do other modifications but the viewport boundary is now invisible
so don't look outside.
And we have only these clean drawings.
So in this way you can change the layer assignments selectively for different viewpoints in Autocad.
