Location of Section\Details

Location of Section\Details

My company create multi-sheet drawing.  When we make a section\detail in a view, the resulting section\detail can sometime be on a different sheet. 

 

Right now the user has to manual enter this page it was from.  While we can use ParentSheet to have the sheet automatic update as we add\remove sheets, most users don't know how to do this.

 

I would like it is Autodesk allowed us to set up our templates so that when we placed a section\detail it would call out what page it was from.  

 

As a stretch goal, we would love if it allowed us to call out the grid reference of that cut.

It would also be nice to have a similar note on the cut-line, describing the sheet and grid where the view is located.

 

These need to be parametric, so that updates do not require a manual change to the notes.
