Block Feature in Sketch on Drawing Sheet (IDW/DWG)

Block Feature in Sketch on Drawing Sheet (IDW/DWG)

Currently users can not create blocks in sketch on drawing sheet.

It would be a nice feature when working on sketch.

Can I expect to have it in the new updates of 2023 version or the next release (i.e. 2025)?

Thanks.

IMHO sketched symbols are similar to blocks in some way.

What would be the advantage of a block? Could you give an example where a block could be used (and a sketched symbol could not)?

 

Is it possible in your case to sketch in the ipt/iam and then make the sketch visible in idw? In this case, blocks could be used.

For me too would be a great feature to have, couse a block in the sketch mode can be positioned precisely to the projected geometry of the 3d part, and from my understanding is not possible with sketch symbols. 

Also, a block may be much more proficient to modify and adjust ( i'm thinking of legs of a machine that is sloped, and supporting legs with different height, that are copied and stretched.
