    Default Is there a limit on number of views/elements you can insert from file?

    I'm trying to bring in some drafting views from another project. If I go through and pick all the details I need and bring them all in at once, it simply says it can't import the view and/or the objects. If I go back and select maybe 5 or 6 views at a time, it brings them in just fine.

    So is there some sort of practical limit to the number of views or elements that can be brought in using the Insert Views from File tool?

    I've had issues if a view was corrupted somehow....but I have transferred over 200 details before...

    There isn't a formal acknowledged number from Autodesk afaik. Is there a real limit? I would be inclined to think that it isn't the number of views but a problem view (as suggested in a earlier reply) in particular preventing it. For example, if there are 50 views offered, what happens if you try the first 40 instead? The first 30?...different grouping to try to pin down which "one" view is causing a problem. Assuming it makes sense, what if you just select sheets instead? Sheets will bring their associated eligible views automatically, nice feature.
