You can show or hide things with a drawing program. Not the most intuitive, but it works.

We do something similar with classification stamping on drawings.

You put the sysmbol in a 'safe' location in your drawing template and on a specified layer. The drawing program will enable that layer IF the file paraemeter is set to Yes.

You need to build your own If/Then code within the drawing program and set layers bsed on your own criteria.
