Ilogic / 2 Sketch Symbols libraries ... Global Form

So here's my Ilogic question 

 

Inventor 2016

 

So I have 2 different sketch symbol libraries .... One English and One in German.  

 

 

My thought is (if it's possible) to make a global form that would be ... Sketch Symbols E ...and G ...    or when I click it, it asks me to pick either  E or G.  Then I'd be able to choose whatever Sketch Symbol I need (approx 30 in each) from the language I picked ...

 

 

Is this possible, or even worth researching ...

 

Thank you too ahead of time for your input and replies:

Hi mdavis22569, 

 

This link has some code that deletes all of the un-used symbol definitons from the drawing and replaces them with the ones from a template file. I think you could do something like this and have all of the symbols swapped out by pointing it to a file that contains English symbols vs German symbols.

Or you could use something like the example at this link if you want to replace symbols that are in use on the drawing:

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Curtis
