Parametric Text

It would be good for any tag such as a beam mark tag or similar that's manually referenced in a text box updates if the the tag for the element is revised or changed.

 

For example you have a beam that's marked and tagged B1 and you have a note and leader pointing to the beam that says for example "Beam B1 is to be painted red". If the beams mark changes for some reason it would be good if the tag reference in the text box updated automatically.

 

I understand schedules are in some way of dealing with this but not in all cases.

 

I also appreciate it would take some major updating to the text facilities programming and we all know how slow updates for that have taken.

There are other requests for the ability to put view references into text, and into parameters, so they show up in schedules.  I think this could be seen as a similar request - you (and I) want to place a reference to something else into text.  The something else could be a view, or an instance of a family.  I hope that Autodesk takes the broadest, most flexible, interpretation of this.  IF they are going to modify text to hold one kind of reference, might as well hold all kinds of references.,
