The points are projected on the direction for numbering. But instead of using only one line, a set of lines are created, elements are grouped inside these lines are groups are treated separately. By Curve - this algorithm allows you to define multiple paths that will guide the numbering process. The algorithm will determine which elements. The program also allows the user to specify a numbering prefix & suffix, the starting number for the numbering, and the number of characters to be used for fixed length numbering with leading zeros (i.e. If the numbering length is set to 2, the program will number the objects 01,02,03.,10,11,12). How to do an auto numbering of text in AutoCAD? Products and versions covered. AutoCAD 2016, AutoCAD 2017, AutoCAD 2018, & AutoCAD 2019.
Due to the limitation of programming in AutoCAD LT, it's really painful automating tasks over there. As an outcome of this thread, here is a tricky macro to automate the process of increment numbering in AutoCAD LT.
Configure the macro in a button (or wherever you are comfortable). Click on the button once and click on the required locations continuously to keep the incremented numbers. use USERR1 system variable to set the starting number and USERR2 for the increment. For example, suppose you need to start numbering from 1.001 and continue like 1.002,1.003,1.004........, set USERR1 to 1 and USERR2 to .001. This will enable you to do the numbering as stated before. The above macro presumes that the text height in the current text style is 0. If you have the habit of assigning specific text height to a text style, better use the following macro.
If you need to insert blocks with incrementing numbers in attributes, or automatically renumber existing blocks in your DWG drawing, you can use the free CADstudio InsertC utility. InsertC contains two commands - InsertC and BlockC.
The InsertC command is a 'counting' version of the INSERT command. It inserts a specified block and automatically fills its first (resp. specified) attribute with an increasing number in a series. You can either specify the block by picking an existing reference, or by entering its name.

The BlockC command takes the selection set of existing blocks and fills (renumbers) their first (resp. specified) attributes with a series of incrementing numbers. You can sort the blocks (influence the numbering order) by their selection order, or by their X- or Y- coordinates.
Both autonumbering commands allow to specify the starting value of the counter, the prefix (you can also add leading zeroes) and the postfix for the generated number. You can also use the insertc:IncLISP variable to set the increment (if other than +1), insertc:Prec for decimal precision (for decimal increments) and insertc:AttNo to specify the attribute number. E.g. (setq insertc:AttNo 2)
