Creating Named views
While working with a drawing, you may need to perform numerous zoom and pan operations to view
key portions of a drawing. Instead of doing this, you can save these portions with a name. Then,
restore the named view and start working on them.
Open the ortho_views.dwg file.
Click on the View tab from the Ribbon.
Right click on the Ribbon and click Show Panels > Named Views, to display Named Views
panel on the Ribbon, if not displayed by default.
To create a named view, click View > Named Views > View Manager on the ribbon; the View
Manager dialog box appears, as shown.
Click the New button on the View Manager dialog box; the New View/Shot Properties
dialog box appears.
Select the Define Window radio button from the Boundary section of the New View/Shot
Properties dialog box.
Create a window on the front view, as shown below.
Press ENTER to accept.
Enter Front in the View name box.
Click OK on the New View/Shot Properties dialog box.
Similarly, create the named views for the top and right views of the drawing.
To set the Top view to current, select it from the Views tree and click the Set Current button
on the dialog box. Next, click OK on the View Manager dialog box; the Top view will be
zoomed and fitted to the screen.
