Minimum number of digits for reinforcement numbers

BrentBurgess1980 — Thu, 23 Sep 2021 02:02:51 GMT

Hi All,

I am trying to access this setting.

I can see other settings in there from Revit Lookup

but can't find the Min digits. I have taken a look in the Numbering Schema but can't seem to find it. Is this something that is exposed and can be found?

Thanks,

Brent

I asked the development team for you.

They already answered, saying:

The minimum number of digits is a NumberingSchema` property.

It can be changed via NumberingSchema.SetMinimumNumberOfDigits(revitDoc, newMinimumNumberOfDigits):

So, in fact, I can find it by searching for 'minimum number' in the online revitapidocs. Just a possibility to keep in mind...

Thanks Jeremy!!! I was thinking that because there were multiple Numbering Schema's that it would be an instance-specific property or method.

I'll keep the Revit API docs in mind for the next one.
