MKD Syntax

The section =WINDOW= contains the settings of the view window and up to 4 drawing windows.

A coordinate system contains a set of several settings that influence the drawing's display and output. These settings are: scaling, rotation, distortion, origin position, length unit, line unit, angle unit, number representation, position grid, and display grid.

Head of Section

TotalNum,WindowMode,WindowActive;

Entry for each Window Setting

If the section =WINDOW= does not exist, all windows will be assigned to the coordinate system 0 "*Standard" without display and position grid, and will display a page overview.
