I have a 15 story building. To display the architect's floor plans as a background, I have created 15 "per floor" view templates with "Linked View" info only. These can be applied without disturbing any bound view templates such as "Mechanical - Piping". This is a workaround described in other posts

........Now another problem: Linked view settings are not transferrable between revit files!!!!
We have a separate Revit file for each discipline. If I attempt to transfer these "per floor" view templates to another revit file (say Electrical, or Plumbing) --The templates seem to transfer, but the linked view information disappears from the template.
We are talking about a typical workflow for any MEP firm that uses a separate Revit files per discipline. Engineers should not be spending their entire day choosing appropriate background views. It would be great if Autodesk could improve this workflow - and not with a paid add-on
