Copying Viewport to another sheet

Hi Piotr

Within your sheet dgn file, are you using a default model and 3 x sheet models.  If so you can setup the first sheet and use the copy sheet tool from the blue models icon.  Then you will have 3 x identical sheet.  Within each you can then tweak them to suit their own requirements.

The problem is every sheet shows different part of the map. Let me post proper drawing ;)

Adjusting (tweaking?) viewport 1 in every sheet would have been an option if I had to show couple of sheets, but I have dozens.

I don't believe you can copy a reference attachment between sheets.

Why not, it's no different to copying a reference attachment between design models?

@Piotr: I trust you are looking to achieve something like below?

what about creating a saved view and attaching that , as it acts like a view port when you export to DWG the saved vies become viewports and vice aversa from dwg to dgm

Yes, exactly. I inherited .dgn with proper map viewports created by my workmates but I have to put new, common for whole project, info box. Before this project I had been doing stuff like that in Autocad and I simply had been copying pre-set viewport and pasting it in exact point. In Micro it is not so easy though. Solution provided by Lorys is simpliest workaround, but I'm still looking forward optimizing it because of dozens of sheets to proceed.

you could automate with batch processor

and maybe use the keyin scripts  to ref attach the saved view if your attaching it in the same place that would make it easier..
