A view is a portion of a drawing that is displayed in a viewport. Views can be saved and restored by name for convenient access. Views are saved separately in model space and paper space.

Restoring such a view may display objects outside the window you specified because the shape of the window may differ from that of the viewport in which you are restoring the view. However, plotting the view will plot only the objects inside the window, not the entire viewport display.
