I am creating a new template from scratch in AC28, to essentially purge years worth of attribute pollution and chaos in our existing template. We have about 250 layers (ranging across index #'s 1 - 2265) that I want to continue to use, so I'm trying ...

Related, but can we also add the ability to define View Settings to regular folders within the View Map, not just Clone Folders? As it stands, we have to choose between scrolling through Clone Folders that eventually contain dozens of unrelated views...

Absolutely. While GO's can tackle this, it would be hugely beneficial to just set it up once in the building material settings, and not have to worry about it.

I think it's safe to say that as architects, we all understand that. I assume you were just trying to be helpful, but I think what would be even more so is someone of your status in the GS Community reaffirming the OP that Archicad is hindering the p...
