As a new user of Hypermesh I am creating a structure outline using lots of lines, which soon get broken up. I have put line numbering on, but wonder if there is any way to make the numbers of the new lines appear as soon as they are created? Just so I know my editing is correct before I get too far. Also; is there any way of limiting the number of pick handles that appear on a line, e.g. to ends and mid-length only?

    The numbers-functionality operates only on the already existing entities, thus it is currently not possible to automatically show a line id when the line will be created. In order to safe some time you could create a keyboard shortcut to show/hide all line numbers. Then it would be only one additional click to show a new line id.
