Layout tabs

Most of the time you work in model space, where you create your map on a 1:1 scale. You can create multiple paper space layouts, where you can place a title block, include several views of the same item, and include notes. Switch between model space and layout spaces using the tabs at the bottom of the application window.

By default, each map has one Model tab and two Layout tabs. Create more Layout tabs if you need them.

To display and hide the Model and Layout tabs

1. At the bottom of the application window, right-click (the Model Space icon).
2. Click Display Layout and Model Tabs.

   To hide the tabs again, right-click a tab and click Hide Layout And Model Tabs.
