Can You Copy or Move a Drawing View to Another Drawing Tab?

For example, let's say you started (or finished) a drawing using the ANSI standard and you wanted to change it to ISO. Since Onshape doesn't seem to allow this standard's change post drawing creation, how can I copy/move drawing views to another drawing sheet tab? Being in automotive we have to deal with supplying different drawing standards depending on the end customer.

Can you tell me what things you would need to be different between the ISO standard drawings and the ANSI standard drawings? I assume most things may apply to dimensions styles here.
We do have improvements for being able to swap the format of a drawing (borders, zones, etc...) and a separate one for being able to get properties from another template.
As far as changing dimension styles, if there is something our property panel does not give you control over now - please let us know. We've shied away from letting users change the "standard" of a drawing since it can be a bit harsh - you see lots of things change in the properties panel - but don't really know what. There are also plenty of companies that make their own "standard" and it largely follows either ANSI, ISO, or something else, but contains enough differences. Getting these properties from one of their own pre-made templates seems to be the better way to go.
