    Default apply multiple visibility actions to a single block

    Summary: apply multiple visibility actions to a single block

    Description: I want to be able to create a dynamic block with more than one visibility action.
    ie: a detail title with visibility of many scale possibilities. Then also have a visibility action to control whether a bubble with detail # and sheet number is visible.
    It would also be helpful to be able to nest blocks with their own separate visibility actions and parameters.

    It is possible to do this using lookup tables.

    Is a bit complicated to work out initially how to do this, but once you understand how to, you can make some awesome blocks. I made for last company I worked at for a valve where you could decide valve body, valve control & whether it was open/closed.

    That said the process could probably be made simpler somehow. A solution as you propose is create a Vis DB and allow it to be nested & be able to control it in the Parent DB.

    Yes, the ability to nest blocks and have their own visability actions and parameters remain intact would be the most intuitive method.
