Renumber Parts

Renumber Parts will walk through all of the components in your model and number them according the pattern you have defined in the CabinetSense Preferences.

There are two strategies for numbering parts:

• Automatic

If you are okay with the way that CabinetSense assigns numbers, you can set the Autonumber preference to Yes (See CabinetSense Preferences) and CabinetSense will ensure that your components always have the correct assignment when you export your data or ask to visualize the numbers on your document.

• Manual
• When you need to take control of your own numbers, set the Autonumber preference to No and it will be up to you to assign your own numbers. You can do that by either requesting this operation or by entering the number in the Name attribute of the Entity Info Dialog

NOTE:

• Part numbers that have been displayed on the model are not dynamic.
• If an underlying component has a change in part number, it's displayed part number will not be updated.
• Because of this the best practice for visualizing part numbers is to only do it when you want to prepare your documents.

Numbering Strategy:

1. Z axis: Everthing below countertop height is numbered before components that are above countertop height
2. X axis: number everything from left to right.
3. Y axis: number from front to back

... Example ...

This example is looking from the top down at the cabinets. The number starts on the left and because the first three cabinets all have the same X location, it commences to number those three from from front to back. It continues to number the back cabinets from left to right. The final 3 cabinets again have the same X location so it numbers those from front to back as well.
