I am trying to insert a view from a project that was initially created in Revit 2017, and then upgraded to Revit 2021. The file has been detached from its central model. My problem is that when I go to insert a view from it into the project I am working on, it tries to upgrade the already upgraded model from 2017 to 2021, even though it's no longer 2021. Additionally, it thinks it's a central model even though it is not a central model.
Thanks
@barthbradley Yes. I am currently trying to see if I can get it to work from a copy of the original 2017 model that's not been updated to see if that makes a difference. So far we're 40 min in waiting.
I've been done this road before. A long time ago. The "fix" was to upgrade the legacy project sequentially. Is that an option for you? In other words, 2017 to 2018 to 2019 to 2020 to 2021. I don't think it was for us at the time either, but we did have a couple of versions in between, so it wasn't truly sequential. But it worked.
Open the 2017 file and save a copy to 2021 then insert views from that copy.
Another easy way is open the 2017 in 2017, highlight the drafting views or drafting sheets (that you want to insert to the new project) in the browsers and save them to new files. Then insert views from those files to you 2021 project, it is much quicker than insert from a full fledged model.
