How soon until we can use SSM fields in the RefNotes? 

I assume you mean putting fields into the Notes?  And further, rather than type something like "%<\AcSm Sheet.Number>%", you'd like to pick it from a list?

In short, we're just pretty limited by what we can get out of that Text control.  Much higher on the wishlist, but related, is to integrate some sort of spellchecker.  I think the eventual solution is going to involve moving all Edit Object dialog boxes to being web pages.  This will give us spellcheck capability, as well as things like adding Fields into the text.  Also, it will set us up for adding onto other DWG platforms, being able to access the Info dialog for any object in the drawing, without requiring a full Land F/X installation.

Wow Jer. Really? If I was going to learn to code, then I wouldn't need LandFX. You are our Wizards!!! Thanks for all of the good work that you folks do daily that make my life so foot loose and fancy free (oh really?).

My wish is that LandFX  RefNotes would be like AutoCAD Mtext. We could right click and add a field from the Sheet Set Manager  (SSM) (Such as a sheet title, sheet number or sheet ID). That way when we  say something like "see civil grading plan sheet XX" we could reference the SSM (fields Sheet Title and Sheet Number) and if we move the sheets around (like we always end up adding or subtracting sheets), the link will change automatically. 

That may come later, but having it show up that words are misspelled and right clicking for possible corrections (like Word) will be a nice improvement.

You are so forward thinking!
