and the Civil Immersion blog.
Comments
I was sorely tempted not to post this video. In some respects it is so silly. Then again - We don't know what we don't know.
I gave up editing and formatting text in AutoCAD decades ago for good reason.
I'm a firm believer in using the right tool for the job.
My favorite text editor these days is Notepad++ which includes all the TCASE options and Proper Case as well.
Since Notepad++ supports recognizes all the various file formats, programming languages, et al, it comes in so handy it is always open.

The automated plotting/publishing capabilities of the Sheet Set Manager (SSM) are without argument the best thing about Sheet Sets.
This is a short post about the mechanics. Best to remember to perform regular clean-ups and property maintenance on the Sheet Set
so you and others get the actual mindless benefits without errors and omissions.

Civil 3D Reference Label Style and Component Creation
Jeff Bartels of Autodesk walks through a short step-by-step on Reference Text in Civil 3D Label Style.
From the Jeff Bartels YouTube Channel.
and the Civil Immersion blog.
Comments
Jeff is kind enough to cover how to make and even adjust the Reference attachment in the AutoCAD Properties box.
Since the Framework for Civil 3D Style libraries includes lots of Reference Label Styles I do get questions about the ??? marks.
I love Alignment Group Label Styles often as QAQC objects to check surface elevation from various surfaces in roadways and site designs.
The InstantOn Styles Preview video covers just a few.
