Hi Brandon, I have some time learning from you. Thanks. I would ask you a question for the first time. I learned how to freeze a layer within a viewport. Can I freeze just an object within just a viewport?

Scale is a tricky thing to get my head around. When the model in Mspace is at 1:1, in the paper space layout I have to use a conversion to get the scale right so for a scale of 1:2500 I have to type zoom (Z) return, scale (S) return and then type 0.4XP. The method that Brandon explains here doesn't work for the type of drawings I am working on, where the units are metres not millimetres. I think that's what the reason is. So for a scale of 1:1000, I have to type Z, S, '1XP'. Anyway, useful video in other ways, many thanks Brandon.

Do you have any videos that would help me get an idea about the 3-D side of AutoCAD? I want to take the next step into that arena but not sure where the heck to even begin... I am self taught and work for a construction company. Any help or ideas would be appreciated!! -Sarah
