Bulk export components to drawing sheets with uniform scale.

I have a file of slices created by extruding a comb through a solid. There are 60 layers and I've used arrange to place them on a series of envelopes with the multi-layout plugin. I now have a set of 10x16 rectangles with missing parts that I want to display one component per sheet at 1:1 ratio. 

In order to do this I have to build a drawing from selection one piece at a time, adding each one to a new sheet. Is there a way I can simply select a list of components and populate a drawing with one sheet each?

The process outline will probably be the closest to what you want.  In the video I mention you must have a Fusion 360 Subscription license this is not true.  After I recorded the video I tried the process on a Fusion 360 Personal license and it worked the same.

So I definitely appreciate the shortcut of copying all of them and then suppressing them - that will at least make A workflow. I'm hesitant to consider this an accepted solution because, for my 60 layers, I need to click 'duplicate' 60 times, and then go into each one and, never losing track, suppress 59 other items 60 times.

Hey @grad2 

Creating a "smart template" should do the trick. Here is a link to the process.
@jhackney1972 this may be of interest to you as well.
