Copying maps from one Pro project to another

[DavidLitke]

Followed the directions at: Add maps and scenes to a project—ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS Desktop but doesn't seem to work.

Did you refresh the project? Did you open the map when you copied it over?

Not clear as to what didn't happen.  I suspect that the map should appear in the catalog pane, can you at least confirm that

PS version of Pro as well

[DavidLitke]

The instructions say you should just be able to drag the map from one project to another, but when I try this the cursor shows no acceptable dropping point. When I use the copy/paste instructions and choose paste in the target project, nothing happens. (using Pro 2.0.0)

I always find dragging and dropping iffy. And this is within Catalog in Pro?

I was under the impression that drag and drop was a feature added from version 2.1 so it won't work in 2.0. I already upgraded so I cannot confirm this is the case...

In my 2.0.1 the copy/paste from a project to another doesn't work either, let alone the drag & drop.

I solved this way:

Project 1:

Select the scene or map you need ( in the map view, make it active )

share tab: export map file > name it.mapx

Project 2:

Insert Tab > import map

or 

catalog > Maps (right click, Import)

Import

(In the import pane, click refresh, for some reason the last map exported is never there.)

select the map/scene (.mapx) > import button.

Thanks, yes I finally found that making a .mapx file was the only way to copy the map. I can't test drag-and-drop in Pro 2.1 because when I installed it, it crashed every time I tried to open a project, so I reverted back to the previous version.

Update:

This morning I upgraded to 2.1.0

In this version IT IS POSSIBLE to copy/paste from a a project to another (tried in catalog Pane) and ALSO drag&Drop!

Yuppi!

Does this actually work? I'm using 2.8.3 and I can't drag and drop or copy and paste.

I had the same issue with 3.1.3 but using keyboard shortcuts seems to work (ctrl + c and ctrl + v).  Other copy/paste and drag and drops don't seem to work.
