Title: Layout Sheet view question
Post by: JOD on October 15, 2023, 11:58:55 AM
Hi Pat,

I have a situation where I have a narrow but deep lot.  I need to have the Plot Plan on a Portrait style sheet of paper and the Elevations (and other views) on Horizontal style paper for the local Building Department.  Can I use both styles of paper in the different Layout Views in the same *.PRO drawing?

If yes, can you describe how to do that?

Thank you very much.

Hi there,

Two options:

1 - You can rotate the floor plan, including the plot plan.

2 - Create a second (identical) file of the same project => File 01 and File 02 => For the Plot plan, create the Sheet Layout View (Portrait Sheet) from file 01 => For the Elevations, create the Sheet Layout View (Landscape Sheet) from file 02.

Hope this helps.
