id symbol count
id symbol count
(OP)
hi, i was wondering if it is possible to let the id symbols count with 1 instead of 10?
when i place id symbols it copy the id from the partslist which are 10, 20, 30 etc etc
i 'd like to change that to 1, 2, 3, 4 etc
is it possible?

@jerry1423: In customer defaults the Increment is already "1" doesn't have effect on it.
also:
When i renumber the partslist ( e.g. : 18,19,20,21) and i add later another part, the new part gets itemnr: 31, instead of 22.

I was hoping the base of the partslist was controled by NX.

The "Callout" is then used by the NX partslist as "PC No" ( Position number), thereby the 10,20,30 etc.
We have set it such that the NX partslist ignores the "Find no" in TC. I think, ( -a few years since i set this up...) that the trick is to make the parts list ignore the "callout" attribute.
1) Customer defaults "Increment = 1",
2) Edit the partslist column "PC NO" , it is default ( when running under TC):
Column type = Callout ( Which it must be.)
...
Default text = <W$=@CALLOUT>
Erase the text <W$=@CALLOUT> then select the "Column Type" and re-select "Callout"
The new "Default text" should now read "$~C" and the "PC No" is no longer connected to the "callout"-attribute but will increment with what is set in the customer defaults.
Right click this partslist and save it as a template.

RE: id symbol count
In your setup, the relation between TC and NX is broken?
Our partslist are created in TC by PSE. The itemnumbers, Findno, PCno (what's in a name) must be the same in TC as in NX.
RE: id symbol count
( It makes the partslist a bit more flexible...)
To my knowledge, : If you want to keep that connection, but get 1,2,3 instead of 10,20,30 you need to set up Teamcenter such that the "Find No" goes 1,2,3 instead of 10,20 etc
I don't think / know if it is possible to have NX "reduce" 10 -> 1 and thereby display "1" in the partslist.
