Text Numbering enables you to select multiple text entities and to choose a starting number plus an increment and the text would either be prefixed or suffixed by the auto-numbering or the auto-numbering will replace the existing text. this is extremely useful when you are trying to count up hundreds of parking places. You can copy a single text entity into each parking place then select all the text and auto number thereby counting each parking place.

Enabling this tool, you are able to select multiple text entities and generate numbering which can be sorted by X, Y, or Order.

  1. Enable "Text Numbering" from menu

  2. Select multiple Text entities with Shift Key

  3. Choose desired sorting and placement order from the Inspector Bar or Local Menu

  4. Select Finish. Text is Auto-numbered
