Hello!
I am a new user to CADWorx Structure looking for someone I can occasionally chat with directly about drawing "structure" projects like I am. Someone that has drawn their 3d model and then generated detailed sheets, xref-ing the 3d model.

Covid has made things really slow in the office so I am taking this time to learn CW Structure. I have ran AutoCAD for many years working in the Petro Chemical Industry, in Corpus Christi, Texas.

My dilemma today is
I have drawn my 3d model and now I have xrefed it into a drawing to begin sectioning and detailing to produce drawings.
I created my vport and did my 3dclip but there are a view layers showing up that I don't want to see. So I freeze them in that vport and then lock my vport. All is good until I need to modify the model and reload it! I have to go back a refreeze the layers in the vport! This is crazy? Have I done something wrong or am I missing something?

Please Help!!!

Welcome Kelly! You can chat to the group of experts on this here forum.

RE your Dilemma, if I am understanding correctly you want to set the VISRETAIN system variable.
