Using
The left side of the plugin window contains a list of views and schedules of the current document. You must check the views you want to duplicate. For views and Schedules that are pre-selected in the Project Browser, the checkboxes are checked automatically when the plugin is started. You can also specify the number of copies of each view. Each view in the list has a Duplicate name field that allows you to specify a new name for duplicate views.
Search by name/number – text field for searching from the list of views. Works "on the fly" - enter a value and in the list there are only those views in the name of which the specified text is present. The search is case sensitive
Select all views – check the checkboxes on all views in the list or uncheck all the views in the list.

The right part of the window contains settings for duplicating views.
When duplicating a views to specify the uniqueness of a duplicate, plugin add the numbering to the view name. Numbering is added at the beginning or end of the view name, depending on the option selected in the window. You can also add a prefix and a suffix for the name of the duplicate view. In this case, the plugin will continue to number without taking into account the prefix and suffix of the view name. For example, if you duplicate a view with the name 1$А50, the prefix В- will result in a new view name В-2$А50
Do not add numbering if possible – when this checkbox is checked, if the view name or legend name will be unique with a prefix and/or suffix, the numbering will not be added.
