AutoCAD How to Create Viewports (Multiple Views & Circle Views) - New Layout Tutorial

AutoCAD How to Create (Multiple) Viewports in a New Layout

In this video I go over how to create a new viewport in autocad. To create a viewport I show you a few ways to create multiple viewports of various shapes a sizes in a new layout. Including polygonal and circle viewports. I also go through the process of creating and new layout by using a drawing template to save time and automate the process.

This video was a response to a few comments I've received about how to show more detail on a single layout without it being a mess.

This video is several years old, however, it is perfect for what i need to do. your pace is great. one thing that would be helpful is to move your socials info off of the ribbon so we can see the tabs you are choosing. thank you.

[shokrix]

Thanks very much for your time and your helpfull videos.
Youtube should pay guys like you more than other youtubers :)

This video is the exact answer to all my questions!

This is great. I'm still learning about the AutoCAD 2018. I watch your video about the viewport. This is better than reading the book.

Holy.. your a life saver bro. Got a new sub! Lol breaks it down more than my text book did .

This was my only problem with cad but now I can move on with finalizing my project and all the credit goes to you buddy! One issue is that when plotting with this method the rectangles are showing on the paper view, how can we get red of the outlines?

[devmeistersuperprecision]

Good video but have two questions.

1) my drawing has many layers. It would be nice to selectively turn off some layers in a viewport to show detail.

2). How would you set up a single paper print to show multiple viewports using different drawings in each viewport. If a drawing changes, it does not affect the other part drawings.

Thanks for sharing the technique. But your Twitter tag usually cover the screen that lets us miss the step

When you make a new viewport, it let's you right click and select the scale. But when I make a rectangular viewport it auto fills it with the view i chose previously and won't let me choose scale

THANKS A LOT THIS VIDEO WAS VERY HELPFULL FOR ME.

Easy enough to understand after one or two views, sound.

Is there any way to show the extent of the smaller VP in the main VP? That is the key to making a clear multi-VP layout I think, something older versions of CAD seem to lack. Do the new ones have this?

WHEN I FREEZE THE CIRCLE THE OBJECT NOT CICLE IN LAYOUT. THANKS, WHAT DID YOU TYPE FOR MAKING SCALE IN SIDE VIEW PORT PLEASE SHARE.

[louiscabaldi]

Thank you for this. Question, what layer should layout viewports be in?

[MrStylorock]

Thanks a lot, sir. can you 3ds max interior design with specifying light, building material, and Vray rendering? love your tutorial and keep up

[tulipinternational]

what is the shortcut you using to adjust the scale of annotations

[vasanthmuppidathi]

Is it possible to measure dimension over viewport
Eg: if object is 2000mm means I want to show in tow viewport in order to get good presentation and also I need measure the object
How can I measure the dimension across two viewport?

[shafiqafizudin]

what are you typing to smaller the text size?

[kcos]

How do you modify a rectangular viewport to a polygon shape? Or how do you add grips or taking them away from a shape?

[pablo]

Can you advise how you got the text to maintain one size in the multiple view ports ?
