title: How do you define a layout for specific areas in ASP.Net MVC 4?
body: <p>I'm playing a little catch up here as I went straight from MVC2 to MVC4, so learning Razor and everything else all at once.</p>
  
  <p>I'm using an admin area in this new application, and I noticed when I went to the controller in the admin area it rendered without any layout.  I tried copying the _Layout.cshtml into the shared view folder of the area, but it still renders with no layout.  I tried searching, but can't find any information as to how you set a layout to be used for an area.</p>
  
  <p>I know I can do this on a specific view, but I want to set it once for the entire area</p>
  
  <pre><code>@{
      ViewBag.Title = "Index";
      Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";
  }
  </code></pre>
