linking markers between projects

Patrick M — Thu, 20 Aug 2026 17:03:14 GMT

I have a project team that wants to put their details in a separate file.
the project has an architecture shell/core team, and an interiors team. The interiors team wants their details separated out for simplicity, and to avoid unnecessary pollution when pulling cut sheets, other project's details, etc. in.
My plan is to create a blank file, hotlink the main project teamwork file in, then they can draft details from the hotlink, updating when necessary.
...
My only sticking point is that we want to be able to reference the detail views drawings/layouts from the interiors model into the shell/core model. I really want to avoid views > layouts from file B to file A; updating those is a PITA that I will avoid at almost any cost.
Is there any other option ya'll can think of to make this workflow happen and properly reference the details (manual text in det markers is 100% NOT an option)

Just clarifying, you are wanting the reference marker to the detail in one file while the referenced layout is in a second file?

exporting PMK's from file B and linking them in file A is a muuuuuuuuch quicker and cleaner way of showing drawings from another file. as long as they are published after any changes, they work seamlessly.
