    Question Display Configurartion for multiple viewports in the same Sheet File

    I am working on a seven story building and in an attempt to minimize the number of sheets the code review sheet has nearly all of the floors for this building on one sheet.

    I have tried to control how different floors display using the cut plane in display manager, but every time I change a cut plane for one of the view ports, the rest follow suit. Is there a way to individually have these view ports display each of the floors?

    I have a full model xreffed in model space and I am able to control the layers of the floors, but not the display config cut plane.

    Hi mmeaney

    Please note I have *moved* this thread from the ABS 2007 General forum to this one, as I believe it will be better served here.

    Thanks, Scott Telthorst

    Some see the glass as half full, others as half empty. As an engineer I see the glass as twice as big as it needs to be. ~Unknown~

    I was able to get this figured out. I copied the display configuration that I was using (MED Detail) and re-named it for each floor and then changed the cut plane. I had to apply that display configuration to the corresponding viewport, but it worked great.
