AutoCAD MAC LT - Dynamic Notes/Key

Hi, 

We are trying to standardize a few things in our practice so that our drawings are clearer. One of those is the Key in the paper space.

Is it feasible in some way to modify the visibility of the paper space key dependent on what is visible in the model space?

 

So for example in our Small Power Plans, we have the icons (blocks) of different items and their text descriptions to the side. Is there a way to show/hide the items in there depending on what is visible in the drawing? 

 

My initial thinking as workarounds we could achieve this either

- through a Visibility State and have a range of options with some on / off. (however, I may end up with 480 odd variations which I really don't want to set up) 

- to separate each item onto its own layer and hide/freeze them accordingly (however, then I will have a lot of gaps in the key instead of a nice neat list) 

- if their loose blocks in a key this may take some time to move around and may mean some drawings have the key items, not in the same position 

 

Does anyone have any ideas of a better way this could be done?
