    The challenge as of today is that snapshots are duplicated upon import. This means in the second import iteration the issue has 2 snapshots. In the thrid 3 snapshots and so on.

    This can be boiled down to the snapshot not having a GUID in its name, like it is defined in the BCF 3.0 definition. Please find all BCF-test cases from building smart under this link to test your features: https://github.com/buildingSMART/BCF-XML/tree/release_3_0/Test%20Cases/v3.0

    The bcf should include a snapshot that is done when the issue is created with the same content as the view. It would also be nice if that view would be possible to markup and include the markup in the BCF.

    By snapshot - does this mean an image snapshot or a view camera POV?
