Summary: Give us coordinate transformation for XREFs! Do it for Map, too!
Description: A post by Brian Haley got me thinking...
XREFs do not do coordinate transformation. You have to do the Map attach/query...
Why not? Give us coordinate transformation for XREFs! Do it for Map, too!
How Used: Your XREF is in UTM or LatLong.
Your current drawing is in State Plane.
Attach the XREF and you're done. The XREF's entities appear at the proper State Plane coordinates. No more Map 3D drawing attach, define query, execute query, worry about save-back, etc.
Feature Affinity: Map
