Metview 3 had an Empty View icon for reserving a blank area of a page. It also had a Text View, into which Annotation icons could be dropped. Metview 4 (from version 4.4 onwards) simplifies these functionalities by introducing a single view, the Annotation View, into which Text Plotting icons can be dropped. The Import View functionality will be available in the Annotation View in the future. An Empty View can be simulated by simply having an Annotation View with nothing in it.
