DWG: Identifying layers on a sheet (dwg layouts)

In the webviewer layouts on a dwg can be found using the sheetManager.

But is there a way to find out which layers are active on a sheet?
If I open 3D model space on a dwg and activate all layers, the webviewer shows all layers no matter what sheet it should be visible on.

Iā€™m not too familiar with the layer implementation in the webviewer but I think the only way to achieve that would be to activate a particular sheet, then retrieve the nodeids for a given layer (model.getNodesFromLayer) and check their visibility states. If they are all visible, the layer is active on the currently visible sheet.
