To draw a line using two viewports, you start the line in the current viewport,
make another viewport current by clicking within it, and then specify the
endpoint of the line in the second viewport. In a large drawing, you can use
this method to draw a line from a detail in one corner to a detail in a distant
corner.
To make a viewport current
■ Click anywhere within the viewport border.
To cycle through viewports without clicking
■ Press CTRL + R repeatedly.
