    Is there a system variable (or some other way) to determine when a paperspace viewport is active when Tilemode is 0?

    if cvport = 2 Then a ModelSpace viewport is active.

    Thanks. Now, is there a way to capture the scale of the active viewport? I know the vpscale command reports it but how would would you get the number into a virable?

    (setq *doc* (vla-get-activedocument (vlax-get-acad-object)))
    (if (and (= acPaperSpace (vla-get-activespace *doc*))
    (= :vlax-true (vla-get-mspace *doc*))
    )
    (progn
    (setq actVp (vla-get-activepviewport *doc*))
    (setq scl (/ 1 (vla-get-customscale actVp)))
    )
    )
