Is it possible to copy a crop region from one view (floor plan) to the next?  I am trying to create the same crop region for multiple levels of a multistory building.  

Initially I thought I could just duplicate the view and then change it's associated level but the associated level is greyed out in the properties dialog box.

 Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm really interested in how other firms handle this with extensive 2 or 3 story buildings?  This has to be an issue for others.

Please let me know. Thanks.

It would not be a problem for us... Don't see a reason to get the crop region exactly the same from one level to the next.   The crop regions location is based on what we need to show.

If you must do this, why not add 4 reference planes and pull your crop region to those.  Of course this is only a visual approximation ... but who would measure this?
