To auto number the current entity and all related child entities to follow a hierarchical order in which the root entity’s number is prefixed to all children’s numbers recursively and assigns siblings numbers starting from 1 all the way to the total, focus your attention on the toolbar.
Find the dropdown labeled More and click on it to expand it.
With the More dropdown open, select the option labeled Auto Number and the Auto Number popup will appear.
The Auto Number Section feature allows you to automatically re-number sections within your document using a defined prefix and starting number.
-
Prefix: Enter a prefix (e.g., “MR.”) to be prepended to each section number. This is optional—leave it blank if you do not wish to include a prefix.
-
Starting Number: Set the starting number for the sequence. For example, entering “1” with a prefix of “MR.” will generate “MR.1” as the first number.
-
Preview Number: This field shows a live preview of what the numbering will look like based on your prefix and starting number.
-
Add Prefix Only: Select this option if you want to apply the prefix without generating a numeric sequence.
Click Run to apply the auto-numbering to the selected entity and its children.
