Create New Viewport
TS_NEWVP
Creates a new layout with 1:1 viewport for your selected entities
Overview
The command asks you to select some entities and these will become the basis for the new paperspace layout. Next, it calculates the extents for the selection set and adds a margin of 10.0 on all sides..
The new layout is called CutToolsLayout[n] where [n] is the number of the layout.
Viewport
The new viewport has the following properties:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Layer | Viewports (colour 96) |
| Locked | Set to True |
Plot Settings
The command will try to setup the plot settings automatically for you.
The printer configuration Print As PDF.pc3 needs to be in your device list.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Plot area | Set to Window |
| Center on page | Set to True |
| Drawing orientation | Set to Portrait |
| Printer Configuration Name | Print As PDF.pc3 (this should already be installed by the CAD software) |
At the moment it is impossible to create a custom paper size in .PC3 files programmatically. This step will have to be done manually.
