You can always edit this later, after-the-fact, if you didn't select this while creating the View.<BR /> <BR /> Once you save your View... Go to the Layout, if the View has not been placed, place it on the Layout... Once placed, you can "crop" the edges of the placed View by selecting and dragging the edges to frame your desired View.<BR /> <BR /> Also, be sure that the View cropping option is checked in your "Layout" section of Project Preferences (AC12) or the "More Options" section of Work Environment (AC13).
