Referencing objects nested in Std_Parts typically(?) leads to 'out of allowed scope' links. With Std_Groups you don't have to worry about that.

Searching for another thing i was back to this topic, with a bit more experience, so I thought it was worth to explain this last point:
App::PropertyLink have many different declinations with different scopes. If you want to link to an objectB out of the container of an objectA, you just have to use a App::PropertyLinkGlobal instead of a simple App::PropertyLink.

use a App::PropertyLinkGlobal

Thanks. But how do you do that from the GUI?

I do no think you can: the object that wants to point Globally to another object have to be designed like this.
I think many object Properties in Draft and Arch object were designed long time ago, before this was implemented in FreeCAD, so they do not yet support this kind of linking...

Thanks for the clarification.
