alanjt Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 >xref in each drawing and place on separate layers >create 4 viewports in your layout >viewport freeze the other 3 xref layers in each viewport >profit. Now, if the objects from each drawing do not overlap, you don't need to worry about viewport freezing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
