Revisions on a "Sketch" Sheet - How to copy view to another sheet???

Prior to Revit, our firm made a habit of releasing 8.5x11 sheets showing revisions to various drawings from full size sheets rather than releasing the entire sheet for one little change. I'm just realizing that Revit makes this a chore, to say the least. I realize why placing a view on more than one sheet is troublesome since the reference would fall apart, but there has to be a good way to handle this type of scenario.

 

The only thing I can figure to do is copy the view, but this also copies section markers, etc. that I have to go back and clean up throughout the set. 

 

Is there any way to do this without it taking way longer than it should?

 

Thanks!

Matt

- For model views, duplicate as dependent.
- For drafting views, duplicate with details.

When I duplicate as dependent it still generates a section cut, for example.

I did the Duplicate on the drafting views. It works, but not ideal since if further changes happen under the same revision you have to do it in two places.

Definitely wish AutoDesk would add a feature to handle these things.

Create a view filter to hide sketch views (sections, elevations, callouts) based on some criteria such as Sheet Number prefix.

After revise the original drafting view, just duplicate it again and replace the older SK view.

Sure.
