The Feature column lists each in-context item (sketches, features, and so on) in the selected part.
The Data column describes the type of data used to create the item (converted edge or face, converted or offset sketch entity, body, and so on).
The Status of each reference. This can be In context or Out of context, Dangling, Locked, or Broken.
The Referenced Entity describes the actual item being used, and the name of the document that contains the item.
The Feature’s Component column displays the name of the component in which the affected feature exists. This information is displayed only when the Referenced entity is in a different component in an assembly; this column does not apply to derived parts.
