Have you ever wanted to layer-link to a cluster of objects but didn't want to create A WHOLE NEW LAYER just for that small subset of objects?
I wish layer-linking was possible for "clusters" like it is for layers.
For example, sometimes I just need to "layer-link" a small portion of a floor plan to a site plan and similarly to a roof plan. Currently I have to put those objects into a separate layer and create different classes for those parts not to be shown on the roof plan and vice versa for the site plan. Then adjust the saved sheets for the site plan and roof plan to view the correct parts.
It would be a tremendous advantage if I could just select certain objects and assign a "link" to the cluster. And also be able to select another "cluster" (within or without) and assign a different "link." Then on the site plan or roof plan, it would be nice if I could just "call" the correct link and put them in place. Symbols are too cumbersome. The "cluster" may contain text, walls, lines, dims, symbols, groups, lights, loci, extrudes, etc.
