Editing objects

Thank you for your time and attention. I am working on electrical layouts and the roofs for this residence are steep. I would like to have a better way to see it so I may edit. Please, I want to edit the electrical symbols, which are library objects, to do two things: 

 

1. Include a 3D morph that I can see in the 3D window

2. Show the object's ID. I am going around it by adding a label later, yet it's another element to edit. 

 

Again your time is very valuable and I appreciate your feedback. Best regards.

Just search here for "How do I learn GDL" and you will find plenty of post with suggestions.
