I am not sure but there might be a node to set a view to a viewport. And nodes to create a named view in modelspace. At the moment I can’t check how it works, maybe tomorrow.
There is no node yet to set a view to a viewport. I’ll put it on the wish-list.
Does anyone know why I have this message error:
Warning: NameError : name ‘acapp’ is not defined [’ File “”, line 29, in \n’]
This is the code I modified:

Thanks @hosneyalaa,
That worked, now the problem is only in my code.
I was close, I will continue trying and investigating if my code is correct, if I can’t, could you help me. 
wirte code by ironpython2 will working
@hosneyalaa I tried,
but looks like there is an error in my code,
There is my code by the way I hope someone can help me.

Cool, Thanks.
Now I get a message that my Iron Python 2 package is not installed but when I go to install it I get a message that the package is already installed.
What should I do?
I add this line
command = "-qselect\nL\nC_POINTS_Setout Point\nEXPLODE\n\n"
but I don’t know why is asking me to drawn a line, where I can find a guide to learn how to use this method.
Where did you get it from?
It won’t work for you Because he A window appears
It is suppose that -qselect open qselect as a hide mode, I got it from chatGPT
I expected this
So I asked you
I’m still looking for learn how to do that what do you suggest me?
I do not know ,What do you do
without Example drawing
Want to explode points?
do before moving in layout
The problem with explode the points in the model is that when you return to the layout the orientation of the labels moves, this does not happen when you enter the viewport and explode them from there.
