Selecting a Paper Space Viewport on a Drawing

  • Last UpdatedNov 06, 2025
  • 1 minute read

This option selects a paper space viewport and makes it the current viewport, thus enabling all of the AutoCAD facilities to be used within it.

Command:

pdms_view_sel

Menu Selection:

PDMS Draw>Select Viewport

Initial Prompt:

Select a viewport

Use:

Click on the boundary of the viewport you wish to make current.

Note:
When an Draft drawing is loaded into AutoDRAFT it is placed in a paper space viewport which is the same size as the sheet.

pdms_view_sel must be used to select a viewport; it is not possible to make a viewport current simply by pressing the pick button inside its boundary.
