Template for Save to New File (Saving View to New File)

Is there a setting that determines which template is used when you save a view to a new file?

If I right-click a view and click Save to New File... it creates the new file, but it does not carry over the line styles from the view. For instance, lines that were black and line weight 3 are now blue and line weight 2 - same line style name. It's as if whatever template is being used for the new file overrides the settings from the view.

 

I have my templates all set in the Options to the office standard template. Where are these settings coming from?

 

Thanks!

Matt

This seems like a greater issue than a visual discrepancy since its the actual settings of the elements themselfs that are altered and not just how they are represented. 


This statement differentiates your issue from the OP who was only concerned about the display of linework.

everything within the file gets "new construction" as the creation phase and "none" for the demolished phase. 


The template wouldn't be controlling the instance properties.

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.
