General information on element numbering

The process for changing and reassigning element numbers has been made clearer. First, two buttons offer clear next steps:

  • 1. Button: Reassign element number and order

    • First, you specify which prefix, type and starting number the elements should have.

    • The setting most frequently used in the current building element (e.g. wall) is offered.

    • The elements can then be selected in their order. All receive a new prefix and type. The first element receives the specified starting number, and the others are incremented.

    • In each step, existing, unique or sortable element numbers of other elements are adjusted if necessary.

  • 2. Button: Change element numbers in the single element

    • First, the element to be changed is selected.

    • Its current settings for prefix, type and number are offered and can be adjusted.

    • In each step, existing, unique or sortable element numbers of other elements are adjusted if necessary.

The formatting of element numbers has been enhanced:

  • The number of digits for the number can be specified. The number is kept constant by leading zeros. This results in the desired order even with alphanumeric sorting:
