i was asked today what the command to stop seeing one viewport throught another when you have one on top of the other

 

i didnt know if this could be done can it??

ctrl + tab

this is what iv got

 

a layout plan with an insert detail on top and the layout can be seen through the insert so you can see the 3 gray lines of the layout in the insert detal if there a way of just stopping this ?? im not sure there is but not 100%

Could you use VPCLIP to clip away what you don't want? You may need to draw two polylines and then convert them into a region before converting this into a viewport to get what your're after.

Now go into your larger viewport and draw a wipeout the size of the smaller vp.

from the sound of it its not just as easy as changing a properties of one of the viewports. thats what i expected but when i was asked it made me think cheers for the feedback

Another simple way is keyhole your viewport.

 

You can create a polygon viewport, start on outside to bottom middle then vertically up to inside viewport go round then continue back on outside one.
