Enable views collections in browser organization

Enable views collections in browser organization

The current browser organization for views is terrible. 
There is no option to maintain basic organization like separate "Permit views set" and "Work views set".
Views collections, similar to the sheets collection feature, could help to improve this lacking.

Thanks,
Lee

You mean something like this?

No. 
I mean one category for all work plans - work plans, section, elevations views and etc. 
And one category for all permit plans - permit plans, section, elevations views and etc.

Once you're done with the permit, you don't want to see any other past phases — they just make it harder to find things.

I think you missed the point. This was just an example on how you can organise the browser. Basically, by adding Project Parameters to the Views and Sheets category, you can arrange the browser layout.

After adding those parameters, create an organisation scheme:

I believe you missed the point 😅
What you're suggesting is a workaround — and it's too complicated and frustrating for something as simple as organizing views.
It should be a drag-and-drop action. Simple as that.
This is a $2000+ software. Why do we need a workaround for such a basic feature like organizing views?

I don't consider this a work-around - to me it looks like basic functionality?

What's the complicated part in creating a few project parameters and use them to create a browser configuration? It's part of our templates, as well as View Templates. No matter what, you have to create a browser layout of some sort yourself.....
