October 8, 200421 yr Yes, it would depend on your current Print Setup (Windows) or Page Setup. You can setup a script to set your Print/Page Setup to Ladscape and then go to your Landscape layout and another script that sets your Print/Page Setup to Portrait and go to your Portrait Layout.
October 8, 200421 yr Author I think you misunderstood what I was requesting. I want to be able to create a layout in portrait mode (vertical) and then switch views to one that is in landscape mode (horizontal). When I would switch back and forth, the view would change from portrait to landscape and it would print that way also. Hope this is more clear. Thanks.
October 8, 200421 yr Then, I think, you need two layouts (portrait and landscape), with a toggle button.
October 8, 200421 yr Layout orientation is not tied to a layout. It is dependent upon the last executed Page/Print Setup, whether performed manually or via script. If you want to use a single layout that shows all information in Landscape and only partial information in Portrait, then you could use a script available from the Scripts menu (since a button would not work in Preview Mode) and a global number toggle field, such as If [globaltoggle] Perform Script [Landscape setup] Set Field [globaltoggle, 0] Else Perform Script [Portrait setup] Set Field [globaltoggle, 1] End If The setup scripts would contain Page/Print Setup steps, each saving the last performed setup. So you would manually set it to Portrait, then create the Portrait script, then manually set it to Landscape, and create the Landscape script. The globaltoggle would have to be set to a default of 0 or 1, dependent upon the layout's initial viewing mode.
