Part Number Data

General

  • The dialog box is related to the function Drawing | Mechanical | Parts List > Part Number.
  • Some of the functions in the dialog box are only available for model drawings, so they are passivated (greyed out) for independent drawings made by drawing.

Dialog Box Options

Part number
Defines the starting number for part numbering.
  • If the drawing already has part numbers, the program suggests next free number as part number.
  • If you want to add the same part number more than once, press the Ctrl key before clicking the location for the reference line point and part number. For more information, see the instructions Add Part Numbers.
  • If necessary, several part numbers are added at once, and the next number is automatically greater than the previous one by the increment interval.
Increment

  • Select a suitable value from the list, or enter a new value.
  • For example, the increment can be 1 or 0.1.

No element marking
