Another custom wire format question

The format for wire numbers that we use places the suffix between the X and Y components of the wire number, i.e. E01091C would be Section E, Page 01, Row 09, 2nd wire in that row under Column C. Is there any way to do this in ACADE, or is it a matter of tweaking the wire numbers once they're in place or moving the suffix to the end?

Go to project properties and click on the Wire Numbers tab.

 

In the top box there is a format box. This box accepts all the replacable parameters that ACADE uses so you just need to play around with the format here to get the result you want.

 

To get a list of all the replacable parameters that ACADE uses, click on the help button on the bottom, go to the Wire Number Format topic and look for the link to Replacable Parameters.

 

You may have to play around with what parameters are used in your title block and other sections to be able to do the wire number automatically in your format.
