Draw Rectangle over viewable area of sheet, use CHSPACE to send to Model Space.
Use the viewable area outlines to layout sheets in Model space.
Finally, use Align Space to line up viewable area rectangles in Model Space with your Layout Tab Viewports.

That is one of the best ACAD tutorials I have found!! Simple and straight to the point. Spoken loud and clearly in English without a thick accent!! 98% of the searches I get audio that is either too soft, I can't hear at max volume, every 8th word sounds fake. Or the 5 min channel plug followed by 3 min speed tutorial. If all of your videos are like this, you gained another follower!

Excellent video. Every step I did I was like "okay that's exactly what I needed, now I need to figure out how to... oh wait yes he's covering that now too!" Thanks!

Really neat. I just started learning as a draftsman and these tools will help make the next project look as clean as ever! There are so many tools in AutoCad I figured something like this would exist, so thank you for explaining it

My two cents. This is great, if you're not concern or not getting other drawings with a coordinate system or points based on coordinates. The moment you use UCS it rotates the model to that user coordinate system (usc) and thing will not line up as far as references from other disciplines working in the same project.

Sooo helpful looked forever to find how to position a drawing properly in layout.

Can you use just align with two corners (from the viewport frame, changespace) and align with viewportframe? Wouldn't this rotate and give the correct scale?

what if i have a big project area and want to divide it into several grids with smaller scale that i can then put on individual sheets on paperspace. is there a way to make that easier instead of going sheet by sheet and aligning the view area to the viewport on each sheet. that process itself takes quite a lot of time especially on a not so powerful laptop.
