Selecting individual Objects/Lines/Points of external reference

Hi,

is there a way to load an external reference inside my drawing and accessing only selected parts like lines, points, obejcts, instead of the whole external reference?

Why:

I dont want my surveying and other contractors works glued to my drawing. Its always a hassle when different contractors work together on a modell and everyone has hundreds of different but identical layers in theires. So i want to keep my drawings clean.

Right now, im trying to check wether specific points have heights (z) while drawing and its really annoying to always needing to open the reference and searching again for the spot.

Thank you

    Nentsel may be your friend. Copy this to command line and paste, then select a xref object.

    (entget (car (nentsel)))

    You should hopefully get the object details. So could make a lisp to get certain items from a xref object.
