Let me know if this does or doens't work on Autocad.

 

Step 2: Make a block of the xref.

I don't know why you do this step, perhaps you need this and this is your trick because there is a bug in intellicad.

In Autocad it make no sense.

 

 

>"This should do the trick."

No (for Autodesk products and i am sure also for intellicad.

1.The Block/Xref is still selectable, while currently active command and also without an active command, it's still selectable.

 

2. Step2 changes nothing, useless

 

3. Think about which layer in your main file reflects Objects on layer 0 (of your Xref) and what happens by turning OFF

 

4. By turning OFF the layer you still able to see all Objects which are not on Layer0(in your Xref),

    still able to select the block/xref and still editable the block.

    So this way is 100% useless in Adesk products.

   

The normal way is: Insert the xref on a special layer, turn the layer LOCKED.

 Still selectable (so it isn't a solution for the question), but not editable (good).
