Component Presentations using templates from the same region are always collapsed into a single region about dxa-web-application-dotnet HOT 11 OPEN

If you want to have two Regions which use the 2-Column Region View, you should ensure that you define two Regions with distinct names. For that purpose, we introduced a Region Name metadata field next to Region View Name in DXA 1.2.

This sounds like I would need to duplicate all my component templates - so not an ideal solution - or do I misunderstand?

from dxa-web-application-dotnet.

No, that's correct; you will need to have CTs for each distinct Region; the CTs don't represent much more than the MVC metadata. In general, the currently solution of using CT metadata to indicate Region is not ideal, but a necessary evil until we get full Region support in SDL Web itself (which might happen this year :-))

Second this as an improvement. Would be a big improvement if this functionality was enabled
