Hi,

 

if you are asking about layout. right click on layout tab. go to page setup manager in that click on modify tab and set the parameters you want. like page size, printer name, plot style etc etc.

Hi jacksy,

 

Thanks for your Reply. I have Right Clicked on Layout but could not find "Page Setup Manager" option. Please find the Attached "ScreenShot01.png" file for your Reference. If possible, can you please send me ScreenShot file or files for Better Understanding? I am a Newbie to AutoCad.

Are you trying to plot from model space or are you trying to set up a new layout?

Hi sthompson1021,

 

Thanks for your Reply. I want to Set-Up a New Layout or a New Page. Since jacksy told me to Right Click on a Layout, I opened Client's File to Right Click on a Layout.

Ok, enter the command LAYOUTWIZARD and that will give you a dialog box with promts to set up your layout. Post back if you get stuck.

You need to turn your layout tabs on first and then you can right-click on them.

Type OPTIONS (enter) > Display tab (second from left) > Layout elements (lower-left corner) > Check "Display Layout and Model tabs" > Hit OK at the bottom right.

Your Layout and Model tabs should now be showing towards the bottom left of your screen and now you can right-click them.

Hi Ami,

 

find attached screen shot for your information. also as you got solution use layoutwizard but i am always using page set up manager as its easy to understand. also if you are not getting page setup manager by right clicking than you can use command PAGESETUP.

Hi sthompson1021,

 

Thanks for your Reply. I am not able to find any "Search" field as such to enter "LAYOUTWIZARD" Command. Can you please take-up a ScreenShot to Show Me where to enter "LAYOUTWIZARD" Command?

Hi nrz13,

 

Thanks for your Reply. So, where should I type "OPTIONS"? I am not able to Find any Search Bar as such.

You just have to start typing when you're in the program -- no need to type it into a box.  FYI, it will show up in your command line (bottom center), but you don't actually need to click into it to start typing.

Hi jacksy,

 

Thanks for your Reply. There is No ScreenShot of Attachment file. Perhaps you would have forgot to Attach that ScreenShot file. Can you please Re-Send that ScreenShot file?

Have you ever worked with paperspace layouts before?

Sthompson - "AutoCAD" would have been a more appropriate question.

 

OP - Please watch this 7 minute tutorial on paper space tab setup. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fc17nsQ-Iys.

 

        And this 2 minute tutorial on page set up manager settings. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fc17nsQ-Iys.

 

         The nine minutes will save you days of asking questions. Good luck and return if you need further help.

Hi nrz13,

 

Thanks for your Reply. Yup! I Found it. Thanks a Lot!

 

* I just started Typing "OPTIONS" (after getting into AutoCad) and pressed Enter without trying to Find any Search Bar or TextBox
* It Showed-Up in Command Line (bottom center)
* In the Pop-Up Window I clicked Display Tab (second from left) > Layout Elements (lower-left corner) > Checked "Display Layout and Model tabs" > and then Clicked OK at the Bottom Right.

 

The Layout and Model tabs is Showing towards the Bottom Left of My Screen and Yup! I Right Clicked on them.

Thank you.
