Paper space problem locked in model space

Anonymous — Mon, 16 Sep 2019 13:09:12 GMT

Hello:

I am in paper space double click my viewport and lose paper space all together. Lose all other viewports borders its like I'm back in model space. the only way I've found to get back to paper space is to type page set up check the display plot styles box exit out the repeat the process but uncheck the display plot styles box. Any idea what can cause this problem?

You double clicked the vp border. That is intended behavior, maximizing your model space. Double click on the blue border to return.

Look up VPMIN and VPMAX commands to understand what you triggered, this is by design.

Thank you for your reply Problem is that there is no blue border to click. Could it be that we are running autocad 2013 on a mac using a program called VMware fusion?

I don't know but you should be posting on this forum if you are using the MAC version on a MAC. If dual booting, it should operate the same way.

Thank you for your reply. There is no blue border to click even after maximizing model space.

The colored band should exist at the edge of the screen. You can trigger this behavior from a layout by using vpmax and picking a viewport. The screen color should change to black (or whatever you've set up for model space) and the rest of paper space should disappear. To get it back, use: vpmin, double click the border, pspace, or click model in the status bar.

This is one possibility. To properly demonstrate your problem, if that's not it, then post a screencast demonstrating what you do. If the viewport wasn't maximized, then just zoom extents.

This will not work if the viewport is not locked.

True.
