Downloading the Revision History from the Marketplace will add an extension tab to CET that contains a legend that you can place in your 2D drawing view or Paper View.

The Revision History is really helpful when you want to keep track of things happening in your drawing. You can use this tool to keep track of changes and updates for you and your colleagues if you are working on the same drawing but at different times.
