Copy between 2 views in 2 projects is exactly what I am looking for. To copy annotations. This gives me hope it can be done.

Thanks again for the great content! seeing your workflow is so helpful to see firsthand how these are developed, using the api docs and lookup table.

I am working on a script right now to copy view templates from file to file and overwrite. How do these copy methods work when there is no vector for the element, like a view template?
