Erase Port Data

Picking the

Erase Port Data

box permanently removes all defined strings

from the selected viewport, and also resets all the

Define Viewport

parameters to default settings.

Note: Do not pick this box if you value any portion of your viewport
strings and current

Define Viewport

parameter settings.

The

Erase Port Data

function is useful if you want to clear all the contents

for a viewport, such as if you need to entirely redefine all strings and
settings, or if the viewport is no longer useful for your application, and you
want to free up the Color CVIM module memory for other purposes.

box a

second time. If you do not want to erase the port data at this point, pick a
different menu item instead of the

Erase Port Data

box.
