How do I save a 3D rendered view (generated by the pyramid' icon)? I am able to do this for other views using View > View Management

As of now there is no way to save the 3D rendered view as a Saved View. However here are a couple of options that you may find useful 

  1. Right click on the 3D Rendered View and choose the Take Picture option. The picture is then saved and can be accessed from within Report Setup ( File > Report > Setup ) and can be included as part of the report.

  2. Instead of using a 3D Rendered View, you can plot a full section view ( right click inside the whole structure window and choose Labels > Structure > Full Sections ). This would be similar to the rendered view but the difference is, you would be able to save it through View > View Management
