VPORTS
• Creates multiple viewports
• Use to view object in different
angles at same time
Command: VPORTS (enter)

4. STANDARD VIEWPORT
- Lists the standard viewport configuration available.
NOTE: three-left is just a suggested viewport.
PREVIEW
- Displays a preview of the viewport configuration you select and the
default views assigned to each individual viewport in the
configuration.
APPLY TO
- Applies the tiled viewport configuration to the entire display or to
the current viewport.

7. A. 3D SURFACE
– small in file size
– hollow inside
– not suitable for editing
Command: MO (enter)
• object properties dialogue box will appear
THICKNESS - extrusion height
ELEVATION – distance of object from the xy plane.
NOTE:
select the object first before you change the
thickness and elevation
