It is. LPub should do so automatically when you create a callout of a submodel
used multiple times in one step. The callout begin/end meta commands surround
both references. For example:

0 !LPUB CALLOUT BEGIN
1 71 30 -70 -50 0.66913 -0.743145 0 0.743145 0.669131 0 0 0 1 Strut
1 71 -30 -70 -50 0.66913 0.743145 0 -0.743145 0.66913 0 0 0 1 Strut
0 !LPUB CALLOUT END

Those struts are from step 15 of this page:

I think there may be some circumstances where it doesn't work - if the submodels
are mirrored, perhaps?

I made a crude tutorial for LPub that may or may not be informative:

In any case, I hope this helps. Have fun!

(...) Well this is just slicker than snot! It didn't even occur to me to use the right mouse button. After playing with it a bit it looks like I need to reorganize my model to achieve what I want. I still couldn't figure out to to make one callout (...) (16 years ago, 29-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad)
