So in the XM version of AutoPLANT Structural, 2D details blocks are shown as
AutoCAD groups, which is very helpful for moving position flags without
having to do a REFEDIT. BUT how do I delete position flags without using the
AutoCAD group command, then using the "find name" command to figure out the name of the group, then selecting that group from the pull down list, then using the "remove" command and then deleting the position flag.

There's gotta be an easier way of deleting position flags.

Also, I can't seem to find anyone who's actually using AutoPLANT Structural XM. Any users out there?

I'm not a user yet, but hopefuly it would not be long. Just waiting for the instalation-guy who have some problems with the new licensing.

So the solution to my problem is simply to deactivate grouping in AutoCAD (CTR+SHIFT+A) and then all the entities become individual objects, which allow you to delete them no problems.

I'm not sure how APS still keeps them as a block, yet keeps them all individual objects at the sametime, but it works, and the intelligence is still there for automatic updating.
