Is it possible to display Survey point decorators from a reference file into your working dgn file?
This would be helpful.

Cliff, I've never be able to do that, but in lieu of that, just being able to hover over the data and get the Attributes is pretty helpful.
Thanks Mark. The situation is such that being able to view the point data from a reference would streamline the review and back check process.
I could develop an ORD label for the survey points that could be visible across all references. That is more effort than I wanted to exert for this process.
Take care,
I'm not sure why this doesn't work. It should be a no-brainer. Are we supposed to import points into each drawing?
I think the idea behind Bentley adding the decorators to survey data is the same as geometry rules that show editable information on elements in the active file (e.g. lengths, radii, etc). However, I can see this being useful for many reasons within the survey environment. I've added the idea to the Bentley OpenCivil Ideas Portal. Will update this post when that vote url becomes available!
