Viewport class/layer visibility jump

[michaelk]

In the OIP of a viewport, when selecting the visibilities of layers, it would be great to have a way to also select the visibility of classes w/o closing the layers dialog box and opening a new classes dialog box.

What I'm hoping for is an analog of editing viewports. You can be in the annotation edit space and go directly to the crop edit w/o exiting the VP edit.

Hope that's clear...

have you looked at using the Organization Dialog box, with the option of Visibilities. This allows you to edit the classes and layers, and which viewport or saved view they are visible in.

Perfect example. I want to be able to do that from the OIP.

I often don't know the name of the viewport I'm working on. I'd like to be able to select the VP on the sheet layer and adjust the class and layer visibility like the visibility option in the organization dialog box directly from the OIP.

I agree with Michael. It would be nice to be able to access the Layer and the Class Properties at the same time on the OIP. Perhaps by the dialog box which opens having two tabs. One for the Layer Properties and the other for the Class Properties.

i would be nice if you could access this from the Object Info Palette:

How about if the Layers... and Classes... buttons were removed from the OIP, and the Navigation Palette were "smart" and knew your were in a viewport and switched to show the viewport layers and classes? That seems more intuitive to me since that's how it works with design layers.
