eTransmit is a great tools, but it is practically useless if you are a civil designer. It can bind/insert xrefs but has no similar function for data shortcut / civil 3D objects. A more powerful eTransmit that can promote and explode Civil 3D objects would make the eTransmit tool genuinely useful again.
Example below: eTransmitting a earthwork drawing, that contains drone survey data. 390MB zip? How am I supposed to issue that to council/client?
