I've switched some of my quicklinker definitions from a CSV file to metarelationship / stereotyped relationships defined on diagrams.

But I've just realised that the relationships appear on any diagram where the element is present. Previously, in the quicklinker CSV file, the diagram filter was used so that only relationships relevant to the diagram type were offered.

Is there a way to make the same restriction on the quicklinker contents from  metarelationship / stereotyped relationships to depend on which type of diagram is open?

I've been switching because I was struggling to get one type of relationship definition in the CSV file, but am gradually finding that having a mixture doesn't work (as far as I can tell, if there is any  metarelationship / stereotyped relationship associated with a stereotype then none of the CSV file definitions get applied).

This is achieved with the Filter to Toolbox option on the quicklinker, switched on by default. This filters all available quicklinks to only those where the connector type and target type appear in the current toolbox. If the toolbox changes depending on the current diagram type, the effect is the same.
