Hi,
I think I have a more workable solution to this problem. It also works on blocks used in a drawing.
Note: I'm using IntelliCAD which is a Autocad look a like. Many similarities. Hopefully the below mentioned steps work as well on the original Autocad software.
Step 1:
Make 2 layers that you won't use other than for a xref.
One of them is used to make a block. For example: Layer "XREF" and "XREF_block".
Step 2:
Insert a xref and put it on layer "XREF". This can also be a PDF file. Or maybe other files. Haven't tried it yet.
Step 3:
Make a block of the xref.
Step 4:
Put the block of the xref on layer "XREF_block"
Step 5:
Turn OFF layer "XREF_block".
This should do the trick. This way you can't select the xref, but still use the osnap settings.
This also works using normal blocks. Put some objects in a separate layer. Than make a block of those objects and put the block in layer "XREF_block" or another dedicated layer. The objects inside the block are visible, snappable, UNselectable and still remain visible to print.
Let me know if this does or doens't work on Autocad.
good luck.
Daniel
