Numbering existing Zones as a series

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello,

I am wondering, whether there is a way to number multiple existing Zones as a series, (after sorting by Zone category) along this logic:

[Zone Category] [Zone number] where "2." is the Story for example
AAA 2.001
AAA. 2.002
AAA. 2.003
AAA. 2.004
BBB. 2.005
BBB. 2.007
BBB 2.008
CCC. 2.009
CCC 2.010
CCC. 2.011

I've tried Interactive schedule export/import, but it couldn't load back the new Zone Number data to the Zones, since they weren't properties.

Thanks in advance for any remarks,

Bálint

We use properties as a workaround for this as well.

Would be nice to have the export/import option work for other input fields (element ID, zone number, zone name etc). We submitted this as a wish to our reseller a few years ago. It doesn't seem to have high priority at Graphisoft.

The zone stamp we have from our reseller allows you to show properties, so it was relatively easy to switch out zone number with a custom property for display on the floor plan.
