The make unique function in the latest update has a bug. Suddenly it changes the definition of the component if it ends in a number. Example: P000631 will become P#1 after making unique. Erasing our codes for the products. Is someone else having the same issue? Is there any work around it?
yep, it’s a logged bug, where making a component unique that ends with a number won’t increment.
no fix for now.
here is another case
Making a component with a number at the end of it’s name unique causes the number to be removed.
Example: I have a several components named <6x8>
If I make one of them unique it will get renamed <6x#1>
Expected name should be <6x8 #1>

something changed in the very last update. it replaces the whole numberchain by a #1
