Creates and accesses references to other PRC entities.
Entity type is kA3DTypeMiscEntityReference.
An A3DMiscEntityReference references an entity containing structure data, representation items, topology data, markup data or scene display data. All of these entities can be referenced from other entities. For example, the A3DAsmProductOccurrence entity (Product Occurrence) can include an A3DMiscEntityReference entity that references another product occurrence. In another example, an A3DAsmFilter entity (Filter Module) can include an entity filter for which multiple A3DMiscEntityReference entities specify the entities to be inclusively or exclusively filtered.
The A3DMiscEntityReference can supply modifiers that affect the referenced entity nominal definition. All entity references can include a coordinate system, which is applied to the referenced item. Topology entity references can also include global index items, such as color and texture.
