Renumbering of column

Anonymous — Mon, 14 May 2018 12:54:15 GMT

Hi everyone,

Im trying to renumber my columns in order to tabulate results. when using Standard numbering tool, the members numbers change to the designated range however remain within the same jumbled order. When trying to use the geometrical numbering, orders seem to be randomised aswell. I basically want the numbers from 1 starting left to right, row by row... can some one run me through how to do this please?

Hi @Anonymous

This can be achievable using: Standard Numbering.

Geometry menu > Numbering.

In bars section > select all columns you want to number (i prefer story by story), then in object number type the number you wanna start numbering with (ex: 1), step (ex: 1), then apply.

That will give you the result as shown in pic:

Hi @Muhammed.OPERA, thanks for your reply,

Im currently trying to do it via stnadard numbering, however, my grid is not perfectly regular and tends to jumble the numbering process. I've realised if i click "object number", set to one, and manually click columns in order they are numbering in order.

You may also number columns as you want (if you want some custom/random numbering), by setting the values as in the previous comment and choose columns, column by column as you want to number.

That's difficult for large numbers of columns but it gave you the full capability of choosing the number of every single column.
