unearthed Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 is it possible to export saved views to another file? I don't see any way of doing this but would be very very useful if there is a workflow or script that enables this. I'm using VW 2018 on PC. Quote Link to comment
line-weight Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Other than duplicating a file with the desired saved views, and then deleting old & importing new geometry as you desire, I don't think so. Quote Link to comment
unearthed Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 Thanks line-weight am hoping s'one will say diff. but you're prob. right. It would be such a timesaver (and save on sending whole files across the world). Quote Link to comment

I thought exactly the same thing recently + came across this thread: Quote Link to comment
line-weight Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Presumably one of the issues is that saved views largely consist of a bunch of class & layer visibilities, and those layers & classes won't necessarily even exist in another file? Quote Link to comment
Tom W. Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 This was another thread I read on the matter: As @rDesign very reasonably says: 'if the issue is that the destination file does not have matching Classes & Layers structure, then Vw should display a dialogue box stating "The Destination file does not have all of the required Classes and Layers used by this Saved View. Would you like to Automatically create them?" ' 3 Quote Link to comment
unearthed Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 I thought saved views would simply be a script and transferable, so many inconsistencies in this program. 1 Quote Link to comment
