appending groups into scenes and scenes into new documents

i’ve got a load of models- things like sofa, tv, a plant etc that are ‘groups’, all in different files.

These groups are appended (and linked) into a model of a room. This a static model with all the room items, and lighting set out.

I then create a new file, and append (link) the ‘scene’ of the room. To this file I add different characters and cameras.

The only problem is, when I append the scene of the room, the ‘groups’ that were appended into that file don’t come through.

is this just a limit of blender - can it only import links down one level? or is there some option / technique to link objects groups through a series of files?

thanks

I just tested and it works recursivly thru (at least) three files. Did you actually select the linked Scene from the top bar? the one with the L in front of it.
