MVSETUP on the Model Layout

The Model layout is most useful for plotting multiple views of a drawing within a single border.

On the Model layout, you set the units type, drawing scale factor, and paper size at the Command prompt using MVSETUP. Using the settings you provide, a rectangular border is drawn at the grid limits.

List of Prompts

When the TILEMODE system variable is on (the default), the following prompt are displayed:

Enable paper space? [No/Yes] <Y>: Enter n or press Enter

Pressing Enter turns off TILEMODE and proceeds as described in MVSETUP on a Named Layout.

Entering n displays the following prompt:

Enter units type [Scientific/Decimal/Engineering/Architectural/Metric]: Enter an option

A list of available units and prompts for the scale factor and paper size are displayed.

Enter the scale factor: Enter a value

Enter the paper width: Enter a value

Enter the paper height: Enter a value

A bounding box is drawn and the command ends.
