Plotting hidden lines

I can't shut off hidden lines when plotting from Layout Mode.

Suppossedly I have to click on the viewport border, click Properties, then set Hide Plot to Yes.

Unfortunately, when I click the viewport border, I do not have a Properties option. There is only Options at the bottom of the pop-up menu, and there is no Hide Plot setting there.

Has anyone else had to deal with this?

There is more than one way to do everything in AutoCAD: start the PROPERTIES
command, select the viewport, make the HIDE change.

Thanks Dean,

Unfortunately, there is no viewport border to select.
I guess that is what my question needs to be.
There is only one view (isometeric) and I cannot find a border for it.

jodowd-
Make sure you are actually in Paper Space when you select the viewport
border.
It should say Paper at the bottom of the screen, to the right of LWT.
While in paper space you can select the viewport border, either right
click and
choose properties, or click the properties button on the toolbar, then
hide plot
is the very last option.

If you cant see any viewport border then you propably
zoomed while in paper space so your border are offscreen.
Or the border is on a hidden/freezed layer.

.... Or turn all your layers on until the one you drew the viewport on shows
up.

No, I have all my layers on, and I have zoomed all the way out. I do not see the viewport border.

I would be happy to send you the file if you'd like to look and see what I'm missing.
