plotmaker drawing "view" location

[Anonymous]

in ploymaker I have various subsets for the different work stages.
ie. approval, planning, construction etc.
within this are placed my drawing files. I intended to copy the drawings from the 'approval' subset into the 'planning' subset (so avoiding having to bring in 51 drawings from archicad again & setting them out on each sheet)
problem is that the copied drawings placed into 'planning' subset are still showing in the 'drawing settings' and view by 'drawing usage' as located in the 'approval' subset. Therefore I am unable to update the revised drawings in 'planning' and am unable to break the hotlink of the drawings in 'approval' as I require these to remain as approved by client prior to planning additions.

Any suggestions welcome, I am trying to avoid multiple layout books, which I thought was the purpose of subsets and hotlinks etc.
I have saved, quit and re-opened plotmaker without any change.

I suppose that your ArchiCAD file for planning is more detailed than the one for approval?

You can have the more detailed or the very same views placed in different sets by creating a new version of the ArchiCAD file, as it probably should be, selecting the views (drawings) placed in the planning subset, and using Link to ... to relink them to a new ArchiCAD file.

HTH,
