If you Show Organizer (top left button in the Navigator), and view it so that the Project Map is on the left and the View Map is on the right, you'll see a 'Save view>>>' button at the bottom. This will then appear in the View Map, at which point you can click on it and hit the 'Settings...' button at the bottom.
Not sure why you're jotting the name down, but you can do that there, as well as change all the view's settings!

Much more work than before
As to your ?
Why save a view if you don't know what it is?
I give each view a name so I can navigate back to it easily
The layouts are named for the name of the sheet.... do you mean how are the drawings named?I was trying to determine how you create your drawings and layouts. You can place the entire Plans/Floor Plans/1/4"/ folder into your Layout Map, using the 'Place Drawing>>>' button, which will create individual layouts & drawings with the names 1. First Floor, 2. Second Floor, 3. Third Floor, 4. Fourth Floor, etc. Then the title...
We have long used a "drawing title" object that includes drawing number and drawing scale (automated) and a manual, multi-line title.The standard titles pick up the drawing names as above. In your case, you're using a manual title. It just seems there's a point at which the link is broken and all the good structuring and automation falls down. For you it seems to be between drawing names and titles, where you set the name manually. I've chosen to 'break the link' between the Project Map and the View Map, by renaming my views manually.
There are so many options where the Project Map views have IDs and Names, Views have IDs and Names, Drawings have IDs and Names, and Layouts have IDs and Names. All can be linked or set individually, but there's still no way to
That's also why I've never understood cloning. Why would anyone want to clone their project Map? It seems the only thing I would ever want to clone is part of my View Map or Layout Map - that way we could quickly clone an electrical set into a reflected ceiling set, or clone a 30x42 set into a 24x36 set. Anyway I'm rambling. This is not directed at you, just at the break down in logic and usability.
I never really got the flexibility and control I wanted out of Title Types, and I'm not overly impressed with the new Title Objects, but maybe that will change as I play with them more.I do remember that. Speaking of objects, have you or do you intend to update your sweet Interior Elevation marker for AC10?
