I've seen this posted before, and my curiosity made me try the solution to a
previous post:
This is how I made this work:
The following must be done from PAPERSPACE (click on any layout tab first):
(the following is copied from my command line - my layer name is "_test2"):
_______________________________________________
Command: VPLAYER
Enter an option [?/Freeze/Thaw/Reset/Newfrz/Vpvisdflt]: N
Enter name(s) of new layers frozen in all viewports: _test2
Enter an option [?/Freeze/Thaw/Reset/Newfrz/Vpvisdflt]:
________________________________________________
All objects created on this new layer ( _test2 ) are frozen in all existing
paperspace viewports! So easy.
In other words, you have to create the layer using VPLAYER, and then create
or move objects onto that layer.
Let us know how it goes . . .
