MSPACE (Command)

In a layout, switches from paper space to model space in a layout viewport.

Access Methods

 Pointing device: Double-click over a viewport on a named layout. Double-click outside of a viewport on a named layout to return to paper space.

Summary

Commands operate in either model space or paper space. You use model space (the Model layout) to do drafting and design work and to create two-dimensional drawings or three-dimensional models. You use paper space (a named layout) to create a finished layout of a drawing for plotting.

When you are in a layout, you can enter mspace at the Command prompt to make the last viewport in the layout current, and then work in model space in that viewport within the layout.
