Hi,

 

If I have a viewport within another viewport and want to select the inner one - I can't. It keeps selecting the outer viewport instead.

 

I can move the smaller viewport out, set it up, then drop it back in, but is there an easier way?

 

Thanks,

 

Ben

CTRL+R will move you through all viewports, you have to have one active first.

Is there a way to adjust the VP Color within one of the viewports and not the other? Example.. I`d like to fade out the xref to light grey in the large rectangular Vp, which keeping the inner viewport(supposed to be the area of focus) xref color black.

In layers properties manager, with viewport active adjust colors By Viewport in the columns on the right.

I have done that, and succeeded with the large original VP. However, when I try to change the inner VP layer styles nothing happens:S I am simply drawing the large rectangular VP, then drawing a polygonal Vp inside of that highlighting certain road areas to be focused on(darker colour)

Then you are not getting that viewport as the focus.

 

Works here, object is white in model, red in large viewport and blue in small inner viewport.

Can you use the Bring To Front-feature on a Viewport? Hightlight the Viewport, right-click and choose Bring To Front

 

Update - tried it myself, can't get it to work so please ignore me!

As mentioned by rkent, Ctrl+R will cycle through the viewports.

Yes, and I have done this as well. I can select and 'get inside' the Vp, just won't let me change the color styles.. I've resorted to clipping them together with the polyline stuff.. its the only way I know how but I don't like doing it, doesn't seem right. There MUST be some way out there to do this properly.
