Summary: "family type: family instance: Reference plane NAME
Description: A named reference plane is set to "weak reference" or above (ie not "not a reference) within a family and loaded into a project file.
In the project file, when a named reference plane is highlighted (ie when dimensioning) the name of the reference plane should appear in the pop up "tool tip" and on the bottom bar.
This would allow users to know what they are snapping to.
A door for example could have reference planes names:
Door leaf top
Door leaf bottom
Framing left
Framing right
etc etc
This would help mitigate dimensioning errors and simplify training of new users that are not familiar with how families work.
At the moment the "tool tip" shows:
"family type: family instance: Reference plane
It should be:
"family type: family instance: Reference plane NAME
