Swap Views on a Sheet

Swap the current view on a sheet directly from the view list.

Viewports placed on sheets can have the associated view swapped to another view in the model.

The View and Viewport positioning parameters are available in both the view properties and in the ribbon panel.

The Viewport Positioning parameter has two options:

• Viewport Center: Swaps the view using the center of the viewport for repositioning. This is the default.
• View Origin: Swaps the view using the origin of each view. This is especially useful for certain view types, such as plan views, when you prefer the geometry in the view to align between sheets.

You can swap the current view with any other compatible view directly from the view list in the properties or in the ribbon. You can also search and filter the view list.

When swapping a view, if the viewport includes a view title, you can choose to preserve the size and position by checking Preserve Title Position. If it is left un-checked, the title size and position are updated to match the new view.

Supported view types when swapping views are as follows:

• 3D views
• Area plans
• Ceiling plans
• Detail views
• Drafting views
• Elevations
• Floor plans
• Graphical column schedules
• Legends
• Renderings
• Sections
• Structural plans
• Walkthroughs

Note: Legend views and graphical column schedule views can only be swapped to other views of the same type.
