nikoue   A cad program is a universe of terms and concepts. And on a forum like this, a lot of jargon. Perhaps we should be more precise and use proper Bentley speak. Terms like View Window, Model, Saved Views, Dynamic View, Building View, mostly with capital beginning,  are very specific things. Unfortunately HELP MICROSTATION GLOSSARY isn't very precise or verbose, but sometimes it helps looking there. Bentley could do a much better job with this though. A Model, with capital M,  in Bentley speak is something different from a model in normal language. I don't like the term as it is very confusing but I can understand they avoided to call it 'element container'. A dgn-file can have one or many Models, and when you open a dgn file you open one of its Models. Go to FILE MODELS and you'll see. The Model contains your elements. As Dominic showed with  MicroStation you can always open 8 View Windows. With UTILITIES SAVED VIEWS you can cerate as many SVs as you ever will want to use. It saves the state of a View Window for later recall. Things like levels+ref onoff,  camera position, clips etc etc. With my earlier post I only wanted to say that, if I understand you correctly, you can do what you want. Learning it fully is something I still do. There are some wikis and Youtube clips around.
