ActiveLayout not activ?!!

[Anonymous]

Hy, here is my problem,

I make a new layout:

Set New_Lay = ThisDrawing.Layouts.Add("NewLayout")

I set it activ:

ThisDrawing.ActiveLayout = New_Lay

And then i make this:

Set PView = ThisDrawing.Paperspace.AddPViewport(Cen_Pt, Length, High)

The problem is, that the new PViewport is not im my Layout, it is in the
last activ
layout.

Why, is this a bug or should i make holidays?

Thank for every answer

It is probably failing at:

ThisDrawing.ActiveLayout = New_Lay

Try this:

Set ThisDrawing.ActiveLayout = New_Lay

No, that is not the problem,

when i set the layout activ it is activ an visible, but in the

paperspace object is the last layout activ, so the viewport is

create there?

... after setting your active layout, try setting mspace to false: (this
will ensure that you are in the paperspace portion of the layout)

ThisDrawing.Mspace = false

ok -- i guess that didn't work.... try this?

Set PView = ThisDrawing.ActiveLayout.Block.AddPViewport(Cen_Pt, Length,
High)

Thanks Lanny your code works fine, but i now know the problem:

I intialize every drawing in this

Set Pspace=ThisDrawing.Paperspace

When i create a new layout, the pspace object will not be actualize, so i
call

the set function again and it works.

Lanny, you're a genius!! This line of code, translated into vlisp, has
finally solved a problem of mine that I've been having for a long time!!
Just wanted to say thanks.

p.s. - Can anyone explain to me why the paperspace collection does not
always stay in sync with the current layout?? Is it a bug, or is it
designed specifically to confuse us?
