Viewport Settings

Open the Viewport settings panel by pressing the Settings button on the Properties bar or on the Object Info panel.

The Viewport settings window contains two panels with Drawing and Title Mark options.

Drawing

The Drawing panel provides the options of viewport window and selected view:

  • Source drawing: select the sheet from where the drawing is taken. You can select drafting sheets, detail areas or details of the project.
  • Area: select “entire drawing” to use the entire contents of the sheet as source, or select any detail areas on the sheet to restrict the source area.
  • Scale of the view, which can be different from the original scale of the selected sheet.
  • Angle of the view. Rotate the view by using the angular slider or by entering the value in the field.
  • Size of the Viewport: automatic means that the viewport box will fit the extents of the source drawing. Automatic-sized viewports cannot be resized. Choose custom to manually resize the viewport box;
  • Filter applied to the view (by project, by layer, black and white, grayscale, etc.). The filters menu also allows you to hide in the viewport texts and annotations that are on the source sheet.
  • Color Overlay: you can add a color fill with adjustable opacity that is displayed over the drawing.
