My Vectorworks file will not allow me to "create a new Viewport" (create new sheet layer) with a completely unique name. Nothing in my file has a duplicate name. Vectorworks keeps saying:
"That viewport name is already being used by another object. Please use a different name."
Even when I do not choose any name, it gives me the same message.
Is there something I'm missing? I remember this happening to me on Vectorworks 2017, never on 2018, and now again using 2019.
Thanks for any assistance. This is a new occurrence for this file; in the meantime I've been duplicating sheet layers and replacing the layer manually as I go instead of creating new viewports.
