Pete (STZ) Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I have picked up some files that ahve been converted from 2009 - 2011, and I have found in the Design Layer a whole series of rectangles. All with no hatch and no line weight. My powers of deduction have come to the conclusion that they represent the viewports on other layers. I have been deleting them with no adverse impacts. Anyone know why they are created, or where they come from? pete Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Tamsin Slatter Posted February 28, 2011 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted February 28, 2011 Possibly by editing the design layer through the viewport and having create reference object (or something like that - just rushing out and too later to check exact name!) checked on the edit viewport dialog. This creates a rectangle on the design layer, the same size as the viewport crop. It can be really useful if you are breaking up a large plan into smaller viewports. Quote Link to comment
Pete (STZ) Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 yes - found it. Not a setting I have on my computer - but others must have this box ticked. Thanks Quote Link to comment
