Split the Active Viewport

To split the active viewport, use the Split method. This method takes one parameter, the type of configuration to split the viewport into. To specify the window configuration, use one of the following constants that correspond to the default configurations previously shown: acViewport2Horizontal, acViewport2Vertical, acViewport3Left, acViewport3Right, acViewport3Horizontal, acViewport3Vertical, acViewport3Above, acViewport3Below, or acViewport4.

For further information on changing viewport configuration, see “Set Model Space Viewports” in the User's Guide.

Sub Ch3_SplitAViewport()

 ' Create a new viewport

 Dim vportObj As AcadViewport

 Set vportObj = ThisDrawing.Viewports.Add("TEST_VIEWPORT")

      
 ' Split vportObj into 2 horizontal windows
      
 vportObj.Split acViewport2Horizontal
      
      
 ' Now set vportObj to be the active viewport
      
 ThisDrawing.ActiveViewport = vportObj
