ORCAD CAPTURE- Changing refdes auto increment value

PCB DESINERRRR
PCB DESINERRRR over 5 years ago

Hello,Is there any option to change the auto increment value for the reference designator ?For Eg. Existing part is C1,if I add one more part this will be C2,Since default auto increment value in orcad capture is 1.If parts will be automatically labeled  as C1,C3,C5 then the auto increment value should be 2. So, anyone please help me how to change this auto increment value to some other value from 1.Thanks.
