I have a similar situation whereas my viewport is way too big and outside of the Layout viewing area. So, I am not able to get to my viewport in the Layout and panning just moves my drawing around not letting me get to the viewport at all. I have tried a zoom - extents, but due to the fact that I cannot click on the viewport this too does not work. Suggestions anyone?
Increase the size of your layout. If your stuck in the viewport then you should be able to do as above and type PS then hit enter to get out of it.
just for the record Control+R will jump from viewport to viewport.
I had the same issue where I imported a Drawing from Revit and imported into AutoCAD. I zoomed in to add a few details, (while in Paperspace) and it would not zoom back out to where I could see the borders with company logo and all the other information. zoom extents didnt work or anything else besides right clicking on the layout tab on the bottom and going into Page Setup Manager and modifying the page again. After that it zoomed out and centered the drawing. Hope that helps.
Thanks man. PS saved my life :), otherwise I had to close the program without saving it and then run it again.....
i think u must use PS command if you got stuck in resizing the object
CTRL + R is not working
I had the same problem. I couldnt reach the extends of the viewport so as to exit from editing it.
I tried typing the command ZOOM extends and didnt work.. BUT it worked when i double clicked the wheel button of the mouse (in which is assigned by default the Zoom extends command).
hope that helps someone
