To Create an Overlay
1. Open a drawing.
2. Click Layout > Overlay. The OVERLAY DWG menu appears on the Menu Manager.
3. Click Add Overlay > Place Views.
4. Position the overlay by doing one of the following:
If the source drawing has only one visible view on each of the sheets, position the origin by using the GET POINT menu to select a new location. Middle-click or choose Done to finish.
If the source drawing has more than one view on any sheet, choose Place > Views > Select Views and select the desired views. (If the view that you want to use as an overlay is on another sheet, choose Change Sheet and select the required sheet). Locate the origin of the main view by selecting a point on the screen. To accept the current position of the view origin, press the middle mouse button or choose GET POINT > Done. The system locates all of the dependent views correspondingly.
