NOTE The xref is attached using a relative path. If you need to change the
path to a fully specified (absolute) path, use the External References palette.
■ A layout viewport that displays the model space view is created on your
current sheet.
■ A named view that encompasses the area of the layout viewport is created
in paper space.
When you place a sheet view on a sheet, all the layers in the current drawing
(including layer 0) are frozen in the new viewport created by the view. The
layers are shown as frozen in the VP Freeze column of the Layer Properties
Manager.
If you need to remove a sheet view from a sheet, you can delete the layout
viewport to remove the view. However, to remove all unused items, you need
to detach the xref and delete the named paper space view.
NOTE The easiest method for removing a sheet view immediately after placing it
is to use UNDO.
