SubscribeWell...a little over one week into my sabbatical I got a puppy! An adorable little Maltese puppy to keep me company during the day while I work on my AutoCAD book...so cute I can hardly stand it! Little "Tiffany" (yes I realize it's a seriously girly name) was an early wedding gift from my fiance...do I know how to pick them or what? Sooooo cute...
Prepare yourself for numerous puppy pictures in the weeks to come (you can't say I didn't warn you!).
After that abuse - I think I owe you an AutoCAD Hip Tip - what do you say?
An AutoCAD Hip Tip to Sync up Viewports:
We've all done it...we've accidentally messed up the scalefactors in our viewports only to try and get them all lined up again...drats! The very cool Express Tool VPSYNC is a real lifesaver in just these situations.
Command: VPSYNC
Select master viewport: Select a viewport
Select viewports to be aligned to master viewport.
Select objects: Select one or more viewports
All syncronized viewports will take on the same zoom factor as the master viewport!
And here's a tip from the very friendly Express Tools Help file:
Tip:
If you place all the viewports on a separate layer, and turn that layer off after running VPSYNC, the edges of the viewport are not displayed, which gives the drawing a cleaner appearance.
So there you have it...I'm off and running to catch the new puppy...I leave you with two last pics...one of Tiffany (alone) and one of my betrothed, Craig, and said puppy!
