Hello

I am not a big specialist at this point, but I am afraid it's not possible. Index key and designation are very different things and they are handled different way. Where do You need this index? In draft? There You can make balloon "Indexes with Information" - one row is for index and another for designation. In model You need right file for indexing which shows You designation and index in the tree.

Dear RaudMees,

Thank you for answer me. I would like to make this because I would like to mark number in the lable. Then my worker easy to realize the right part according to right file for cnc machining.

I hope we have other ways to do this.

Best regards,

Hello sinvia

There is an another way to do this. I made labels years ago where I added a slot for Index. You have to know, it's not just Index, it's 3D Index and they will be generated automatically with some clicks.

I made short video about this. The most important thing is to make correct Index.bom with identification row, otherwise You may have different geometries with same index. To avoid indexing for fittings (like dowel in my video) You will have to use filters.
