   Hi,
I am creating custom MEP devices and adding them to our custom tool pallet. When creating a single device, does anyone know how to make some elements of a device automatically go on a predefined layer while also have other elements of the same device automatically go on another predefined layer

(i.e: I create a panelboard device with panelboard symbol, clearance, and designation. When I add to the tool pallet and then i click on the panelboard icon it automatically puts the Panelboard on a layer E-Power, the Panelboard Clearance on E-Power-Clearance, and the Panelboard designation on E-Power-Text) 

Thanks in advance for your help,
