CHAPTER 5 "TOOLS" 4 1.1 Renumbering Tool for the renumbering of study data. Select the command and in the dialog box, select the category of item from the list and the numbering type . Enter the initial number in the "From" field and the "Step". For "Automatic" numbering, select which levels to apply the new numbering to. For "Selective" numbering, select the item category, Apply and select the items in the 2D view. For the category "Pillars" activate the checkbox to get "continuous count" along the height of the pole for the selected levels. To receive the automatic modifications select "Apply", and for "Selective" continue by sequentially selecting the items for renumbering. NEW: The "Initialize" command "scans" all selected items and automatically numbers them. It is advisable to use it BEFORE renumbering and the necessity of its creation has arisen in order to deal with the case where automatic renumbering omits those elements that do not belong to a level (e.g. when the +,- in the levels are not defined). In more detail: By creating the mathematical model, the program numbers all the mathematical members. However, performing a recount by the designer afterwards, while there are members that do not belong to a level, created duplicate counts for these members. So in this case, an Initialization is done first and then the recounting desired by the scholar is performed. Members not belonging to a level are automatically numbered at the end of the remaining members. OBSERVATION: No item should be numbered 0. If a zero count occurs, an error message will appear in the model checks.
