Therefore you should be able to have a legend on your cover sheet. If you need a view with a keynote reference to kickstart your legend then a single view should do (not all 400).

Someone told me that Cadimage Keynotes almost does what we want. However as the discussion went on there appears to be a limitation on this add-on. The Schedule/legend listing the labels/keynotes in any view on a sheet has to be on the same sheet to list the keynotes as a legend. Therefore you cant have your Schedules/legend on the Cover Sheets referencing keynotes on other sheets with views.
OK dont tell me there is a work around for this. Place all your views off to the side of the cover sheet that show your keynote legend. On large projects we could have in excess of 400 views. Image how long that would take to update!

As I understand it GS is owned by the same company as Cadimage?

Showing all keynotes in a projects master legend if some of them DONT appear in a layout/project will confuse building contractors who will waste time looking through 100 sheet sets. Its either there or not and shouldnt be on the cover page if its not used. It would also waste OUR time responding to a RFI when they ask where a listed code/keynote is.
IF thats how it works with Cadimage keynotes. Ideally for some practices it should allow for a master legend to cover all used. If that is what you are saying it can do then it is getting closer to suitable for use for us.
