MVIEW creates layout viewports, with options for rectangular, polygonal, or object-based boundaries.
After you set a viewport's scale, which property stops the scale from changing when you zoom inside the viewport?
Answer: Display Locked set to Yes
Locking the viewport display prevents zoom and pan from changing its scale.
An architectural viewport is set to 1/4" = 1'-0". What is the equivalent scale ratio?
Answer: 1:48
One foot is 12 inches, and 12 divided by 1/4 equals 48, so the ratio is 1:48.
You need an existing rectangular viewport to follow an irregular polyline boundary. Which command does this?
Answer: VPCLIP
VPCLIP clips an existing viewport to a selected object or a newly drawn polygonal boundary.
How do you hide a layer in one layout viewport while keeping it visible in all other viewports?
Answer: Use VP Freeze for that layer while that viewport is active
VP Freeze freezes a layer only in the current viewport, so other viewports are not affected.
Which command moves selected objects between model space and paper space and keeps their apparent size?
Answer: CHSPACE
CHSPACE moves objects between spaces and scales them so they look the same size.
An annotative text object appears in a layout viewport. What controls its displayed size there?
