After starting this command, user should indicate the object for which the number is to be assigned. After indicating the object, the numbering dialog box is displayed, in which you should specify options related to determining the number and other numbering options. Then, after pressing the OK button, user should indicate the location of the number for the originally selected object. Next, depending on the selected options, user can indicate subsequent objects or select multiple objects. In this case, the selected objects can belong to different systems and industries. Program assigns these objects to the appropriate dimension chains and assigns subsequent numbers in each of the chains independently.
If the Select many objects to numbering option is enabled and the numbering was started from a CADprofi object, then when selecting objects with the selection window, schematic lines and drawing objects other than objects from the CADprofi program are skipped.
Line and object numbering command allows user to number any drawing objects that were not created in CADprofi. Such objects cannot be automatically assigned to systems or industries, so such objects can only be numbered when the Select many objects to numbering option is disabled.
Example of numbering multiple objects using the top-left to bottom-right method:
a. searching for items in columns |
b. searching for items in rows |
Example of numbering using the Same Number for Similar Objects option
Example of numbering by industry using the text pattern [SYSTEM]-[NUM][BRANCH]
Line numbering
To number schematic lines, run the Numbering - lines and objects command and indicate the schematic line in the drawing. Then a dialog window will be displayed, with options appropriate for line numbering. The Select many lines to numbering option will allow user to select multiple schematic lines using "selecting edges" (designated by clicking two points). Selecting lines using selecting edges is only possible for schematic lines in CADprofi program.
Examples of line numbering in a schematic drawing
Example of line numbering - reversing circuit diagram.
Example of line numbering - solar set diagram.
6 Procedures
Numbering of lines and objects
1.
Run the Numbering - lines and objects command.
2. The Numbering - lines and objects dialog box opens.
3. (Optional) In the Type of numbering field, specify the numbering format along with the available options.
4. (Optional) Select a number block and specify the number text pattern and optional attributes.
5. (Optional) Specify the rotation angle and height of the number text.
6. Specify leader settings after selecting the Draw leader option.
7. (Optional) Enable the Select many objects to numbering option and specify the automatic numbering order.
8. Click the OK button to close the window and proceed to numbering.
9. (Optional) Specify a position for the first object number. Remaining numbers will be assigned and inserted according to the Automatic position option.
10. (Optional) Indicate subsequent objects you want to number.
11. Finish numbering objects by pressing Esc or Enter.
