Model to Layout

Hi does anyone know if there is a type command to switch from Model to Layout?

cheers.

Try typing TILEMODE. The setting should be "0".

thanks ReMark. sorry but how do you get to layout? i can get from layout to model by typing model fine but not the other way.

cheers

I use the icons at the bottom of the screen.

If your icons for Model space and Layout 1 are not visible try right-clicking on the tray and enable Layout/Model. The icons should appear.

i normally do use them but i prefer to type all my commands

is there a command to get into the layout? can one be made if there isnt?

thanks for the help

At the risk of repeating myself, on the command line type TILEMODE. If you are in model space the setting will be "1". To change over to a layout the setting must be "0". Type "0" then press the Enter key. You could write a macro using the Macro Recorder feature of 2009 and it will slightly automate the process for you. One click on your macro will do the trick.

sorry ReMark didnt quite understand the first time its clear now i look again.

thanks

OK Steve. You had me going in circles there for a moment. I'm glad we are clear. Crystal.

Also, you can hold down the "Ctrl" key and hit "Page Up" and "Page Down" to scroll through the tabs.
