To Edit Xref or Block References in Place

1. Click Tools menu > Edit XRef In-Place.
2. From within the current drawing, select the reference that you would like to edit.

   If the object you select in the reference belongs to any nested references, all the references available for selection are displayed in the Reference Edit dialog box.

3. In the Reference Edit dialog box, select the specific reference that you want to edit.

   The reference file is locked to prevent multiple users from opening the file at once. You cannot edit a reference in place if the drawing file is being used by another user.

4. Click OK.
5. Select the objects you would like to edit in the reference and press Enter.

   The objects that you select become the working set. By default, all other objects are locked and faded.

6. Edit the objects in the working set. Click Save Back Changes to Reference.

   The objects in the working set are saved to the reference and the xref or the block is updated.
