Retain Viewport override layer state when Bind

[Baker_ADG]

I cannot beleive i have not been able to find a topic on this. 

I have a drawing with several viewport overrides to an xref in multiple viewports.

How can i bind the xref and maintain the overrides? bind vs. insert?

Visretain is set to 1.

Don't use insert. Use bind then explode.

Then you will have a bunch of layers called [filename]$0$[layername]

Really messes up the layers.

I agree with wisp. No insert, only Bind works for this scenario.

There's an old lisp routine that will rename all the $0$ table names..give this a try after you bind an xref:

Area Object Link | Attribute Modifier | Dwg Setup | Feet-Inch Calculator
Layer Apps | List on Steroids | VP Zoom Scales | Exchange App Store

I just tested it with insert and it worked fine, kept the overrides, no long layer names.  2016.
