Data Reference Manager

[civil3d.wishlist1941]

Summary: Add a data reference manager similar to the reference manager in AutoCAD.

Description: I would like a way to determine the source drawing and source object name of a dref. I'd like to see this in a dialog/window. At a minimum it would list all drefs in the current drawing and display the host drawing and object name. The dialog could list additional information similar to the AutoCAD External Reference Manager such as: reference name, size and data. A preview would be nice too.

I realize I can select the dref in the drawing and select open source drawing but I still cannot tell which object is being referenced.

How Used: I would use this to determine the source of drefs in a drawing. Sometimes it is difficult, if not impossible, to determine this information in a drawing, especially drawings created by other companies.

Feature Affinity: Project/Data Shortcuts

Good idea. I generally have some naming tricks and rules but this becomes impossible if you can't enforce drawing standards.
