Description

Layout is used to compose or lay out your model drawing for printing. A layout may consist of a title block, one or more viewports, and annotations. As you create a layout, you can design floating Viewport configurations to visualize different details in your drawing. A layout is a paper space environment that simulates a sheet of paper. In a layout, you can create and position viewport objects, and you can add a title block or other geometry. You can create multiple layouts in a drawing to display various views. Each layout displays the drawing as it will be printed on the sheet of paper. Typically, when you begin designing a layout environment, you step through the following process:

  • Create a model drawing.
  • Activate or create a layout.
  • Insert a title block.
  • Create floating viewports and position them in the layout.
  • Set the view scale of the floating viewports.
  • Print your layout.
