Paperspace locked from Model

[randcdavidson]

Is there a setting where I can assure I don't accidently drop into Model space from paperpsace? I can't tell you how many times I double click to edit something on the paper-page only to miss and drop into the Model. When I want to work exclusively on the paper-page I would like to make sure I stay there.

Thanks

I think setting spaceswitch to "0" will do what you want.

Thanks, Bruce! That's one I'd never heard of.

I'm unsure of why the OP would not want to go into model space from paper space. I do it so often its like second nature when working on multi-sheet drawings. If your having issues with the viewport scaling simply lock the viewport it wont scale even if you go into paper space.

Because when you have text, or any other object that can be edited by dbl clicking on it, in Paper space and happen to miss the object you get sent to Model Space. It gets frustrating at times. Having this option, and using the Paper/Model Toggle to go between spaces avoid the unintentional jump to Model.

It's not that I disdain the journey to MS via PS. Actually I would not mind if a double click on empty space whilst in MS would bounce me back out to PS. Sometimes I'm done with MS and want to work solely in the PS and that is why I posted the Question.
