How to reset drawing label letters?

How to reset drawing label letters?

How to reset drawing label letters?

(OP)
Hallo,
I'm looking for options which would reset the order of the letters of individual views in drawing? For example: each new section gets another letter of the alphabet (A,B,C...) if I delete B, then I get a break, which I don't want. Manually change the letters with more views, takes a lot of time, so I wonder whether there is a better method?
I use: NX6(W7x64) or NX6(LINUX) or NX7.5(W7x64)
Thank you in advance for your reply
P.S. Sorry for poor English

RE: How to reset drawing label letters?

Hover over the label, Use the RMB and select Edit View Label.  You can then change the letter, but only if the letter has not yet been used.

If the desired letter {i]has[/i] been used, just rename it to something else, freeing the desired letter for use.

How to do it manually, I know :) But someone mentioned to me the function that would do it automatically (in older versions of NX).
If I have a blade airfoil sections, I have to keep the letters order for sections.

RE: How to reset drawing label letters?

I'm not aware of any version of UG/NX which automatically, with or without help from the user, would allow you to reset/update all the view label letters if a view was deleted leaving a 'gap' in the sequence.

OK, thank you so much for the reply, just wanted to make sure that there is no such option.
