Stopping Automatic Zoom Extents

f_e_ouellette — Wed, 28 Jun 2017 15:07:02 GMT

Hi,

Every time a click on a new view (top, left, front, etc.), Zoom Extents happens automatically. Then I keep having to zoom all the way back in to the small area I am trying to work on.

Any way to turn off this automatic zoom extents?

Thanks

Fernand

UCSFOLLOW to 0?

Thanks Justin. I should have mentioned that i tried UCSFOLLOW = 0, and it still zooms extents.

I am using Plant 3D as well, but that shouldn't matter?

Thanks

Fernand

UCSFOLLOW must be set to 0 in each ViewPort. Go into each VP and set that to 0.

You still have to set it in each viewport, even in MS.
