It would be nice if the REFEDIT dialog box would open with all the tree items collapsed so I can quickly find and open the ones I'm looking for instead of searching through a list of hundreds of items or manually collapsing a bunch of them. Is there a variable or something that controls how the nested tree items are shown when invoking the REFEDIT command?</P> Fri, 27 Jan 2023 14:59:06 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-forum/is-there-a-way-to-set-the-refedit-dialog-box-to-open-with-all/m-p/11710360#M43525 Christopher.Verderame 2023-01-27T14:59:06Z Re: Is there a way to set the REFEDIT dialog box to open with all the tree items collapsed? https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-forum/is-there-a-way-to-set-the-refedit-dialog-box-to-open-with-all/m-p/11710646#M43526 Can't see what you see over there <a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/11231088">@Christopher.Verderame</a> , try again?<BR /><BR />OR... Start using CLASSICXREF command instead, that older command is still around and works the way you want I believe, hope that helps.
