How can I copy&paste a perspective view map to another file?

archigreen — Wed, 30 Oct 2013 20:46:16 GMT

How can one copy & paste a perspective from the view map to another sister-file?
I know the perspective settings:
- Camera Z
- Target Z
- Distance
- Azimuth
- View cone
- Roll Angle
- Sun Altitude & Azimuth

What I do not know is the precise location of that view.
Can I convert that view into a camera and copy & paste that camera to the other sister project?
Any thoughts?

Have you tried to copy/paste a camera? I have not and don't know if you can, but the easiest way to find out is to try it.

If it does not work, copy and paste a column or other easy to find element at your camera location and then use your know values.

Of course You can copy-paste cameras.
The plain old cameras(an paths) are the easiest way to insert a pre-seted sets of views (in therms on settings that would be propagated to the new 3d views not only the points of cameras) in template.
