Assign a Work Offset value to any View. Whenever you create an operation in that CView, the operation’s Work Offset value defaults to the assigned value.
For example, select the Top View and assign a Work Offset value of 54. Then create an operation with the CView set to Top. Notice the operation dialog value for Work Offset defaults to 54. Typical values range from 54 to 59.
