Switching between layouts and models
Thread Content
I encountered a problem while drawing; I hope everyone can help me solve it. After finishing drawing in the layout, I accidentally switched to the model view. But when I returned to the layout, the drawing was gone, although it could still be seen in the model view. What’s going on?
Switch back to layout mode, double-click to activate the viewport, and use the scroll wheel to pan the image in order to find the drawing you created
You must have accidentally deleted the viewport in the model space. Generally, viewports in paper space are deleted and then a new one is created. Switch to paper space View/Viewport/One viewport. After creating the viewport, the elements in model space will become visible; make sure to set an appropriate viewport scale in the Properties panel (using the MO command). Also, under normal circumstances, the layer on which the viewport is located is not printed; therefore, create a new layer named “not printed”, set the model to be not printed, and place the viewport on that layer.
I’ve encountered this situation too; I learned *
The DefPoints layer can also be used; it is the default layer that is not printed
