Hi, is it possible to copy a private view from one user to another without having to mark the view as common view? Thanks.

Hi there, I'm afraid this is not possible - at least for a moment.
Usually private views are such that users create those for themselves.
Of course the user could grab a screenshot of the filters and settings and send that for the colleague so that could be duplicated.
As a matter fact, the September release helps with this greatly.
Please review the release notes:
Tried September Release and it works, but wouldn't it be helpful to also copy the selected columns of the view? Same with common views, why would I want users to set the columns themselves?
Edit:
I know I can use the "Save As Common Display Settings" option for Common Views but then I still have to reset the view for the other users manually even if I checked "Remove all users' custom display settings in this view".
And when sharing a Private View this isn't even possible, so the recipient has to select the columns manually..
When using Detail Listings and you create a new Tab as Common View there isn't even an option to save the Common Display Settings..
IMHO this is very confusing and incosistent..
