ViewPorts

How do you name a viewport in the drawing.

Thanks

Not sure that understand your question – are you talking about terminology or want to assign it an Id to be able to access it later?

There is a way to make a view port and give the view port a name/ title... Just wondering how to do this...

You may just add a text label close to the viewport (above or below); after call the GROUP command and join them together. May also use BLOCK command, but this will not allow you to adjust later the viewport.

From what I am reading there is a way to name a viewport for Sheet Set Manger.

I think the user is wanting to use a "named viewport". I don't personally do this so I'm not sure how to do it.

I understand the mater now. Unfortunately I’m not able either to help OP on this.

Just hope that someone with experience on this will notice the thread soon.

I think I figured it out. Here's the link

What the OP may be thinking of is a named view, which can be associated with a viewport.

Bingo Cyber Angel, and that tip should sort the OP out, I just posted an addendum to it at the link.

There are also NAMED VIEWPORTS which can be configured in the VIEWPORTS DIALOG and include 2D or 3D, visual style, etc.

I think those are more for saving favorite configurations and styles, I usually use the VIEW MANAGER.

Here is another good link regarding this sort of use of VIEWS,
