view management delete
The DELETE command may be used to delete a viewport from the screen. This operation can also be used to delete a set of saved view parameters (attributes) from the data base. If a view displayed on the screen is to be deleted, then the VIEW_NAME parameter is required. If the view to be deleted is not displayed (i.e. but stored in the database) the SAVED_VIEW_NAME parameter is required. The deletion of a view from the screen does not force the set of saved view attributes to be deleted from the database (in fact, if the attributes of a screen view have not been saved to the database prior to the attempt to delete it, a warning message will be issued).
To get a listing of the saved view names, type a "?" character as shown: "SAVED_VIEW_NAME=?"

Extended Definition:
1. Each view created has a name associated with it. The view_name parameter is used to identify a view for a particular operation. In most cases, view_name=all is also a valid entry. The all option indicates "all displayed views". There are eight standard views available when the Adams View is started. These views are: front, top, right, iso, bottom, left, and back. The first four of these standard views are displayed by default when Adams View is started. The user may create new views using the 'VIEW MANAGEMENT CREATE' command, and save/restore their attributes.
If the VIEW_NAME parameter is used, the desired view can be identified by picking in the window or entering the name from the keyboard. Typing the name is the only way to identify a stored view that is not displayed.
