How to prevent removing 0 from numbering

[marek]

For example, if I use 0 in numbering. AutoCAD removes leading 0 from the number format, which is not expected.

For example my numbering looks like

D.1. some text

D.1.001. some text

D.1.001.1. some text

D.1.001.2 some text

D.1.002. some text

D.1.002.1. some text

D.1.002.2 some text

D.2. some text

The leading zeros makes sense in my numbering, because it correspond to official (and required) numbering of buildings objects.

If AutoCAD starts numbering, it removes leading zeros, so my list than looks like:

D.1. some text

D.1.1. some text

D.1.1.1. some text

D.1.1.2 some text

D.1.2. some text

D.1.2.1. some text

D.1.2.2 some text

D.2. some text

Which is not what is expected and do not correspond to building objects numbering defined in local standards.

Any suggestion, how to work-around it?

At the moment I have switch of numbering completely, but if I add anything new to the list, I have to manually renumber it...

Hi, can you tell me where that happened in the table, text or Mtext?

MText,

at the moment I do this work-around:

A. some text <numbering list>

B. some text <numbering list>

C. some text <numbering list>

C.1. some text <numbering list>

C.2. some text <numbering list>

C.3. some text <numbering list>

D. some text <numbering list>

D.1. some text <numbering list>

D.1..001. some text <numbering off>

D.1..001.1. some text <numbering off>

D.1..001.2. some text <numbering off>

D.1..002. some text <numbering off>

.

.

.

D.2. some text <numbering list - continue, in fact I do first basic structure and then insert object structure within D.1.>

E. some text <numbering list>

F. some text <numbering list>

G. some text <numbering list>

H. some text <numbering list>

Looks this helps, but objects part of the list I have without automatic numbering, so any changes in the object structure results in manual renumbering (at the moment it is for me acceptable work-around).

To stop issues with automatic numbering I use .. (two periods).
