The equivalent command to the “Isolate” while working with layout viewports,

 

I couldn’t figure out the equivalent command to the “Isolate” while working with layout viewports.

 

For example, in the attached screenshots, I wanted to isolate one layer in SOLE viewport. Using the “isolate” command will affect other viewports!

 

How this might be performed?

 

Thank you

 

Best

 

Jamal

ISOLATEOBJECTS command is not viewport-aware: neither is HIDEOBJECTS command.

In addition to LAYISO noted above, LAYOFF and LATFRZ can also be set to be viewport-specific as well. if you need more options later on.

Many thanks Nestly. It works fine.

 

Does this mean that the “Turn On\Off” command can be exactly the same as “Freeze\Thaw” if the setting is chosen to be “VP Freeze” (attached)

Anything that changes a Layer's ON/OFF state is a global setting that will affect the display of those layers in all viewports.  VPFreeze/VPThaw only affects the display in the current Viewport.

This is what I wanted to concluded.

 

If the “Off” command (attached) is set to have the “VP Freeze” option then it will affect only one viewport and thus it will behave as the “freeze” command.

 

Am I correct?
