In this video, we will show you how to organize your work environment with multiple and dynamic views of the same drawing under different angles and zoom factors: the viewports.

1
00:00:08,820 –> 00:00:14,600
In ARES Commander Edition 2014 you can organize your work space

2
00:00:15,140 –> 00:00:20,820
with multiple views of your model, from different angles, to get a global vision of your work.

3
00:00:20,820 –> 00:00:26,000
For this purpose you use the View tab.

4
00:00:26,340 –> 00:00:31,660
And from the Viewport menu, choose how to divide model space.

5
00:00:31,900 –> 00:00:34,460
I can choose to see only one viewport,

6
00:00:34,940 –> 00:00:37,300
or vary between the options offered here.

7
00:00:37,760 –> 00:00:42,699
This allows us, in a very simple way, to divide the screen into several views.

8
00:00:43,120 –> 00:00:46,940
If I click here, I can change the point of view.

9
00:00:48,240 –> 00:00:49,780
I can choose TOP,

10
00:00:51,900 –> 00:00:56,19
and here, select FRONT.

11
00:00:57,600 –> 00:01:01,860
I can return to a single view by clicking on the first option,

12
00:01:02,160 –> 00:01:04,500
or choose from the other options

13
00:01:05,900 –> 00:01:09,620
all available using the View Tiles Manager,

14
00:01:12,100 –> 00:01:16,140
to divide the screen into four views-like in this example

15
00:01:17,680 –> 00:01:19,800
by selecting this configuration.

16
00:01:20,000 –> 00:01:23,440
If we click on this viewport, we can activate it,

17
00:01:23,680 –> 00:01:26,240
and zoom or pan with the mouse wheel,

18
00:01:27,469 –> 00:01:34,469
and of course easily switch to another viewport by clicking in it.

19
00:01:34,720 –> 00:01:38,20
I can also change the display modes from here.

20
00:01:38,280 –> 00:01:40,520
Then, from the command line,

21
00:01:40,920 –> 00:01:43,640
you can read the options and choose one

22
00:01:43,860 –> 00:01:48,100
to configure each viewport,  according to our needs in the project.

23
00:01:48,300 –> 00:01:56,960
Let me emphasize, the ability to divide model space, into multiple views is convenient for working in 3D –

24
00:01:57,240 –> 00:01:59,280
but also useful in 2D.

25
00:01:59,520 –> 00:02:05,979
For example, If we are in a TOP view, we could display the entire drawing in this view

26
00:02:07,720 –> 00:02:11,980
while in this other view, we could also select TOP.

27
00:02:12,620 –> 00:02:18,700
But with a specific zoom that allows us to see in detail a specific area of the drawing.

28
00:02:18,840 –> 00:02:22,780
So, when we draw in this view we can be more precise

29
00:02:23,80 –> 00:02:27,520
and simultaneously see the modification in the other views,

30
00:02:27,800 –> 00:02:31,440
like, in this example, the main window.
