Subseries (Custom) Autoincrement

Compere · 09-13-2011, 01:51 PM

When im using the normal series field, choose a series from the list of series and tap outside the dropdown, the seriesnumber autoincrements by 1. now i have added a custom column called "subseries". the column works, but the number field according to the series, will not autoincrement by 1, if i tap outside the dropdown field. is there a way to do this?

I find that the custom series like columns DO auto increment, but only upon saving the metadata. So you don't see the number on the screen like you do for series.

And it only works if you leave the number field blank. If you type a number in it, it will use that number.
