Label tags are numbered sequentially according to the order in which they are created, but you can renumber them to remove gaps in a sequence, or to change the starting number or increment value.
By default, newly created tags are unique. Duplicate tags are only created manually. Specify tag starting and increment numbers in the Table Tag Numbering Dialog Box. You can create a duplicate by opening an existing drawing that contains duplicates across sites/alignment collections or with the renumber command. You can create or avoid duplicate tags as desired.
Tutorial Exercise: Renumbering Table Tags
Table tags support the following tag mode labels: general line, general curve, parcel line, parcel curve, alignment line, alignment curve, and alignment spiral.
- Click <Object Name> tab
Labels & Tables panel
Renumber Tags
. - Do one of the following:
- In the drawing, select a tag to renumber. The starting number is determined by the Table Tag Renumbering settings. If there is a duplicate in the drawing, you are prompted to skip to the next available number or to create a duplicate. By default, duplicates are not created unless you allow it. You can select multiple tags to renumber. Select the tags in the sequential order that you want them numbered. If you selected a label that is not a valid type or is not in tag mode, you are prompted to try again.
- At the command line, enter S. In the Table Tag Numbering dialog box, set the starting number and increment for the label types, either line, curve or spiral. Then press OK.
- Enter end to end the command.
