I think I'm also following the importing exporting of the layer states. Thinking that for the purposes of the xrefs however it probably makes sense (if my understanding above is correct) to NOT import the layer state from the xref because might inadvertantly use it in the host drawing.... somehow. In other words maybe just not necessary to have it in the host drawing.
I can however definitely see how I could use the import export function between different drawings where the intent is to xref them and I want to keep layer states consistent project to project.
Am I missing something about this functionality for the task at hand?
Another couple of related questions.....
- When I double click the layer state in the host drawing for the particular xref, all the other xref info goes away in model space. I can see how that might be as intended. However, is there a way to get back to all the layers on and thawed and the correct layer states for the various xrefs? Right now I'm just using layon and laythw.
-Then there is the long list I have of the various layer states for the individual xrefs that show up in the drop down menus. Most of them don't apply to the actual layer states I need (Only need "Floor Plan_Floor Plan" & Site Plan_Site Plan"..... etc (Not "Floor Plan_Reflected Ceiling Plan" & "Floor Plan_Roof Plan" as example). So wondering if there is a way to clean this up? I get that I can turn off "show layer states for xrefs" in the layer states manager and I'm guessing there is probably a way to get the xref layer states to not show up in the ribbon dropdown, but need to see them to be able to update them..... but only want to see the ones I'm actually using. Maybe it gets back to the xref.... Someway to only assign a layer state created to only one layer state..... Might not make sense. Oh well, I'm satisfied with being over a huge hurdle here! This is all gravy if I can get it sorted out.
A huge thanks for your help!
