Quick Change Visibilties to Saved Views

[CS1]

Once you've saved your views with various layers and classes switched on/off, to change these selections at a later date you need to go back in to the "edit save view" mode and show/hide the appropriate views again relying on your memory for which ones you want on/off.

It would be easier if on your main screen if you could use the "navigation" panel to show/hide various layers and classes and then click on your existing save view in the "navigation panel and click somehting like "update" or "save changes to..."

Did someone say use the REDEFINE option in the NAVIGATION Panel?

I was actually going to point out that in the Organization Palette, if you click the visibilities button, you can see exactly what layers and classes are visible in a saved view (or a viewport) and modify those visibilities. If you select multiple views in the left hand column, you can change the visibility of a class/layer in all of them at the same time. Great for when you need to add a new layer into a bunch of views.

The Redfine button (under the pulldown menu [black triangle on the left of the Navigation Palette panes buttons]) is also great if you only need to change a single view. Just set the visibilities and redefine it.
