Item Status and Item Maturity Status drawing attributes codes

[szczepan.balawender]

Right now there is no possibility to bring the Item Status and Item Maturity Status attribute to a drawing's titleblock.

Can you extend the list of the attributes for which there are codes on the drawing (https://help.autodesk.com/view/UPCHN/ENU/?guid=UC_MechanicalCAD_mc_cad_plugin_mc_map_attr_html) with the attributes Item Status and Item Maturity Status?

I'd like to add to this to also add Item version, CAD version, and Drawing version.

My employer would like to see Item Status added to the drawing.  It could be in the titleblock or elsewhere.  I have used this feature in my prior workplace / CAD and PLM system and a nice watermark to indicate Item Status closes the loop to ensure what type of drawing you are reviewing “DEVELOPMENT, UNCONTROLLED, RELEASED, etc.).  Overall this adds value to an engineering drawing.

Based on experience, I'm not a fan of adding the status to the drawing, since then it has to be updated everytime the status changes.
A watermark to indicate non-released documents can be a solution, to prevent the usage of non-released drawings. (this of course requires an indication, if a new revision is already created/released)

I usually discuss the "why" behind that requirement with my customers.
In most cases, it is related to output management and not really viewing in PDM
