"Pick Up View Settings" function does not work at all

In AC 26, the right-click menu option of "Pick Up View Settings" does not work at all. I want to copy temporary view settings among different views, and in previous AC versions it worked.... more or less!

 

Here, I do the temporary changes in the view settings (2D or 3D, doesn't matter), showing some layers, hiding some layers, whatever. The layer settings at the bottom turns to "Custom", as it should. Then I go to the menu, supposedly """""pick this setting up""""" with the option, then I switch to another view. I go to the menu, click on "Inject View Settings", and nothing at all happens! It doesn't change the layer settings, it doesn't change rotation, graphical override, it doesn't change anything!

 

Please tell me where the "Allow copying view settings" option hides in ArchiCAD. Or if it's a bug, then please fix it, because it's getting really annoying when I have to jump around a massive modell with a specific task in mind, and I have to redo over and over and over again all the temporary view settings for that task.

 

Thank you.

Since we are in AC 29, I just want to update this thread with the feature "Redefine with Current Window Settings".

It works for just any view maps but it doesn't work between tabs of Floor Plans as we can not open multiple Floor Plans at the same time.

Process...

1. Open the source view map with all the desired view settings.

2. Either from the docked or floating navigator, scroll to the target view map.

3. Right click the target view map (do not open by double clicking) and select the "Redefine with Current Window Settings".

 

I hope this will help the new AC users too.
