Sometimes you might want to view your model with different layouts. For example, perhaps
you have a model with multiple floors. (Floors can be created by using the Plane object.)
With a multi-level simulation model, you might want to build your model with all the floors
on the same flat plane, but still be able to view it with the floors stacked on itself. You
can use model layouts to quickly change between different model views:
You will use the Model Layouts tool to create these different views. This topic will
explain how to use the Model Layouts tool in more detail.
Opening the Model Layouts Tool
To open the Model Layouts tool:
On the main toolbar, click View, then select
