Hi, everyone!

About seven years ago, there was a thread about patterning features such that numerical values in included text features could also increment with each pattern instance.

Back then I'd proposed a solution that required a Child List in Knowledge Fusion. That worked well, but was really tricky to set up.

With the help of one of our NX developers (Vineet Mokashi) I recently figured out a technique that makes this (and a variety of other cool text patterning ideas) viable, without requiring a KF license.

Here's a YouTube video detailing the technique. I hope you find this useful!
