    Thumbs up Ability to change attributes in symbols

    I would like to see added to Design Review the Ability to change and manipulate attributed data in a custom symbol similar to how the stamps work.

    When you create the custom catalogues i would like to see that when you select "block information included" with all attributes selected, is that you can change them when inserting the object via the symbol library.

    This would be an invaluable tool especially if it recorded the markup alteration! The only other way is to put a wrong symbol in highlighting the wrong attributes but to state it in the mark up comments.

    Regards,

    Duncan

    This is a good one. We have markup symbols that are blank, but putting the text object inside the symbol is a needless complication.

    I also agree, this would be an invaluable tool to aid in the organization of constructability and field mark ups we do.
