| Four View (front, side, top persp) layout with fixed panel configuration?
|
|
|
Hello AREA Community!
After my F2, F3, F4, F5 Hotkeys was assigned to:
switchModelView front;
switchModelView side;
switchModelView top;
switchModelView Perspective;
When I’m in Single Pane layout and using them everything is alright.
But sometimes when I’m trying to switch from Single to Four Panes layout by QuickLayout bar button or otherwise, panels arrangement (order of viewports) is changing.
I don’t want to have flow layout. I want always to have my Perpective viewport in topLeft corner, front (Ortho) in bottomLeft, top in topRight and side(Ortho) always bottomRight arranged.
How about fixed 4 panel configuration? Is there MEL Script or something for this purpose?
Thanks!

The reason it keeps switching the panels about is because you not switching panels, your switching views.
So if your in four pane view, you switch to single (persp), then toggle to side then switch to four pane view, what was the persp will now be side.
Its simple enough to make a custom view, have it ready, (ie made) then on buttons for switching layouts (on left) right click and go “Save Current Layout...”, give it a name and press “Ok”.
That layout can now be activated by right clicking on the buttons and selecting that layout, if you wanted to assign it to a hokey, simply use this script.
setNamedPanelLayout "SAVED_LAYOUT_NAME_HERE";
That should work fine for you now.
