ArcGIS Pro 3.0.3:

It would be helpful if we could copy/paste mobile geodatabase views as tables -- in the same GDB, from within Catalog.

Currently, it doesn't work that way. We get an error that the object already exists. I assume Pro is trying to paste the view as another view with the same name, not as a table.

Whereas, with other geodatabase types like file and enterprise geodatabases, copy/pasting a view within the same GDB produces an exported table.

Could Pro be changed so that copy/pasting a view in the same GDB produces a table?

I'm aware there are other ways to export views to tables. But the copy/paste method in Catalog is preferred, for consistency and convenience sake.
And to be honest, exporting using other tools doesn't seem to work for mobile geodatabases anyway. Only file geodatabases get listed when browsing to the view>>table output location.

Thanks.
