Viewports - ick. Crop Regions Rule. ;-)
Unfortunately, crop regions are not saved as part of a View Template. View
Templates only store information not specific to model geometry. A crop
region needs to know what and where to crop.
However you can turn on crop regions for multiple views at the same time
once the views are on the sheet. Just select all the views on the sheet and
open the Properties dialog. Toggle the Crop Region option so it is a black
check and you are done. Each crop region can then be individually sized to
meet the needs of each particular view.
