In the last major release of Fusion 360, we added Duplicate Sheets.

Now you can create duplicates of drawing sheets. It works just like “Duplicate Slide” in PowerPoint. Simply right-click on the sheet bar to duplicate the sheet. All drawing elements are copied with all references, making the new copy independent of the original.

Does this help to address your requirement?

Hi Clint, Thank you, it does help, but still will be of help to have copy/duplicate a view on the same page, for large assemblies like boats for example we require a lot of views/sections/details etc... and will be of great help to be able to copy views, I do understand is not a lot of hassle to "load" a new view when required but whatever makes the process easier and specially faster it really helps, also there are other features that I would like to recommend or ask for future updates for the 2D drawings, like an option to add "sections" on the drawing template setup, at least a generic center section this will save a lot of time too, and other 2D feature is to "Color Fill" a selected part, that would be great too, that way we can "highlight" a part we are trying to call attention to.

Thank you for you help

I'd love to talk to you about these suggestions and gain a bit more insight into your workflows. If you're up for it, here is a link to my calendar, please book a 30-minute Zoom session with me. (note times are in 24:00 format so 03:00 is 3am, 15:00 is 3pm).

I'd be happy to answer any questions you have about our drawings package, and I can even show you some workflows that will help with some of these requests.
