Same viewport on different sheet layers

[nevillem]

I have a viewport I want to appear on more than one sheet layer. Is there a better way to do this than by copying the viewport and then pasting it into each sheet layer - say by using visibilities somehow ?

[Dieter @ DWorks]

If you want the same annotations on it, then you could create a viewport on a design layer, put your annotations there. Then you can create a viewport on a sheet layer to that design layer so that you can show it with it's annotations on more than one sheet layer. But basically, you still need to create a viewport per view, even if it is the same.

Good solution. I need to do this too, to have two mirror copies of a set of plans but at different scales.

Just came up with a nice solution for this:

-Create the SLVP

-Create your annotations in the VP

-Select all annotations and Create Symbol

-Copy and paste the VP on any sheet

If you need to edit the annotations you edit them in the symbol and they update in all similar VPs.....

When you place a Callout and then check the 'Place As Keynote' option in the OIP.
