We are just going to have to agree to disagree on this one Josh. Anything I want to automatically update I use an xref instead of a symbol. I understand that this may not be practical for what you are trying to do but this way it is done by project so that they are updated only on that project and I don't accidentally change an existing project.

I agree with Paul. If it could be set up a strickly an option I wouldn't object but I have a feeling this would be a big change for the Dave & crew at DataCAD.

I am with Paul on using the XREF's too. Especially with the ability now to Ctrl+Right Click a symbol and convert it to an XREF. I would just like to see the ability to replace a symbol with an XREF. This would compliment the convert to XREF nicely and allow you to then replace similar symbols with the new XREF.

Maybe a macro could be written to do what you are looking for Josh?

Would be nice if the database selection dialog box for symbol attributes showed both CSV and TXT files default. Having to switch to TXT every time is time consuming. I'm so lazy. :twisted:

It would be nice if you click a point to start a B-Spline that if you right click so you can pick a new start point that it didn't kick you out of the command completly, just leave you to pick the first point of the next b-spline, similuare to how the polyline or polygon inputs do. Thanks :D
