Greetings!

 

I'm using Autocad LT 2010. Is it possible to manually enter the coordinates which determine the position of the contents of the viewport? They are not editable in properties tab.

 

I need to control the positions of the conents of the differents viewports on diffetent sheets.

I don't think that is possible. I believe what you are seeing (Center X and Center Y) is the coordinates for the viewport itself and not the coordinates of what is being shown in the viewport. Check it out.

It is the coordinates of what is shown in the viewport. They are shown when you double click the viewport to access the contents.

If that is the case then you should be able to override the value for Center X and Center Y without the viewport itself moving. Try it.

Tried that. Not allowed to edit the values. I can only move the contents of the viewport and watch coordinated follow. But not manually setting them, that would be extremely useful in my case.

That's odd. Of course I'm using plain AutoCAD 2010. I can edit those values, at will, whether the viewport is locked or not. And when I do it is the viewport itself that changes position and not what one sees in the viewport. I cannot explain why you are unable to edit the values.
