How Do You Disable a Viewport in AutoCAD?

You can disable a viewport in AutoCAD using the MVIEW command to turn it off. Here's how:

1. Enter Layout: Ensure you are in the layout tab where the viewport exists.

2. Type MVIEW: On the command line, type MVIEW and press Enter.

3. Select OFF: At the prompt, type OFF and press Enter. This tells AutoCAD you want to turn off viewports.

4. Select the Viewport: Select the specific viewport you want to disable and press Enter. The content within the viewport will no longer be displayed, and the viewport frame will become invisible if its layer is set to be non-plotting.

Disabling a viewport this way doesn't delete it; it simply turns off its display. To re-enable the viewport, follow the same steps, but in step 3, type ON instead of OFF.
