I don't think there is for every case of application a pauschal working answer but I can tell you what works for me:
I have one Designated layer for that named "Drawing Sheet",
all blocks used for Frame, Title Block, Zoned Border etc are drawn on "Drawing Sheet". That allows me to turn EVERYTHING all together invisible in the Layer List or piece by piece in the Block List. Maybe this will work for you too ... :wink:

Thanks Husky.

So don't use any of the Model Space layers?

Just to be sure, Layers are not 'owned' by a Block like Model or Paper Space or any other Block.
