Work with Layouts

The commands that work with layouts allows you to create new layouts, change existing layouts and save selected layouts in the file as a template.

The layout name that was set when you created, copied or renamed the layout, should be unique up to 255 characters (capitalization does not matter).

note: No more than 31 characters of the layout name are displayed on the layout tab.

It is allowed to create up to 255 layouts in the single document.

To activate a layout (to set it current) just left click on its tab. The display order of layout tabs can be changed by dragging the tabs to the left or right. If there are many of layouts in the document, to move from one layout to another, use the CAD drafting Work with Layouts 0 button. When you click on it, the context menu with a list of layouts opens:
