Reference data of the drawings have to exist in the CUSTOMTOOLS database in order to open the referring drawings with help of the Open Drawing command. Saving drawings when the CUSTOMTOOLS Add-In is in use adds all necessary reference data automatically to the CUSTOMTOOLS database so the drawings could be found by the Open Drawing command.
Once the Open Drawing command has been clicked, the Select Drawing dialog box appears if more than one drawing has been made from the selected model. If your model have only one referenced drawing, the Open Drawing command opens the drawing automatically and the Select Drawing dialog box does not appear at all.
The Select drawings list displays the drawings referring to the model.
