view management save
The SAVE command is used to save the current view attributes. These attributes can be restored with the 'VIEW MANAGE RESTORE' command. The attribute values include object location and orientation, render type, distance from viewing object and so on. The contents of the view are not saved. If the SAVED_VIEW_NAME parameter is used, the current values of the screen view will be saved into that view, and that view will replace the original view on the screen. Displayed views cannot be used with the SAVED_VIEW_NAME parameter.

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.
