The LowerLeftCorner and UpperRightCorner properties represent the graphic placement of the viewport on the display. These properties are defined as follows:

Viewport 1—LowerLeftCorner = (0, .5), UpperRightCorner = (.5, 1)

Viewport 2—LowerLeftCorner = (.5, .5), UpperRightCorner = (1, 1)

Viewport 3—LowerLeftCorner = (0, 0), UpperRightCorner = (.5, .5)

Viewport 4—LowerLeftCorner = (.5, 0), UpperRightCorner = (1, .5)

Examples

VBA:

Sub Example_UpperRightCorner()
    ' This example creates a new viewport and makes it active.
    ' Then it splits the viewport into 4 windows.
    ' It then takes finds the upper right corner of each of the
    ' windows.
    Dim newViewport As AcadViewport
       
    ' Create a new viewport and make it active
    Set newViewport = ThisDrawing.Viewports.Add("TESTVIEWPORT")
    ThisDrawing.ActiveViewport = newViewport
    
    ' Split the viewport in 4 windows
    newViewport.Split acViewport4
    
    ' Make the newly split viewport active
    ThisDrawing.ActiveViewport = newViewport
    
    ' Iterate through the viewports. For each viewport,
    ' make that viewport active and display the coordinates
    ' of the upper right corner.
    Dim entry As AcadViewport
    Dim UpperRight As Variant
    For Each entry In ThisDrawing.Viewports
        entry.GridOn = True
        ThisDrawing.ActiveViewport = entry
        UpperRight = entry.UpperRightCorner
        MsgBox "The upper right corner of this viewport is " & UpperRight(0) & ", " & UpperRight(1), , "UpperRightCorner Example"
        entry.GridOn = False
    Next
End Sub
