Open Drawing from Part Studio

Is there a way to switch to a parts drawing from the part studio? In SW when you create a drawing you can right click and "Open Drawing" but all I can find in OS is "Create Drawing." It's a pain to go looking for a parts drawing when you have 50 of them in a folder. You can switch to the part studio from the drawing but vise versa?

There is no way to do this at the moment in Onshape. The parts and drawings only seem to be connected by name, although I am sure there is another link going on behind the scenes. This is functionality that we really need as well, searching through documents with over a hundred drawings is beyond tedious. I am sure it will be coming down the pipeline soon. They have been pushing a lot of drawing improvements lately.

Is there any progress for your intentions, or is it still intended only? looking for drawings is really a mess - for example it could be accessible from BOM list in assembly, or part studio, so that I can see, which parts already have its drawings and which not. also make batch export to pdf and step would be great, if you intend this software to be used by people who actually crreate something more complex.
