Numbering of text/attributes is a very convenient command used to manually renumber terminals or other objects.

 

You are using the command in the following way:

 

•Select the command.

 

•A dialogue box appears.

 

•Select what you are working with, texts (Texts), a particular attribute (Attributes) or terminals specifically (Terminals).

 

•Specify a start value, which is the number of the first terminal if you are dealing with terminals.

 

•Specify a step value, which is the value that the start value should be incremented with (enumerated) for each terminal (or corresponding object).

 

•Specify a possible prefix, which means a text that is in front of each number. This could for instance be a colon (“:”). In most cases it is best to leave the prefix empty.

 

•For terminals suffixes are not available. A suffix is a text following the number values. For Texts and Attributes you may however use a suffix.

 

•Select the terminals (or other objects you wish to renumber) for instance by using a window.

 

•The renumbering will be made directly and automatically and is executed from the left to the right and/or from top to bottom.
