Image Display order in diferent views

Dear Sirs,
I have 2 images that I need to see on 2 diferent views. On one view I need to see image A over image B. On the other view I need to see image B over image A. When I do the display order, it reflects on both views, so I have the same order on both views.
How can I avoid this, so that I can see different display orders depending on the view?
Hope I was clear enough.
Regards
Ricardo
p.S I am usinf AutoCAD 2010.

Hi,
reference image A twice, on different layers. Within the viewports you can then freeze (viewport-freeze) layer A1 and in the other A2. In the draworder you can then set A1 under B under A2

Hello Alfred,
thank you for your answear.
However I am using viewports on model space. ( Set Viewports - Two: Vertical).
In former versions of CAD I was able to do it, because when I made the draw order, only one viewport would refresh. Then I got 2 viewports, one with one image on top, the other with the same image below.
Should there be any kind of system variable to do that?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Ricardo

Hi,
>> Should there be any kind of system variable to do that?
You may play with sysvar SORTENTS (>>>details<<<), but I would then switch to a layout with viewports instead of tiled modelspace (e.g. for 3D-construction I have a layout not for printing, just for construction and that works very well).
