Hi,

I'm creating objects in 5 different tables and I have a requirement for the object's IDs to be unique accross all 5 tables. I also need to set the starting ID value with a UserParameter

Suppose I had 3 features created in each table.

My objective would be :

Ids 1 to 3 in table A

Ids 4 to 6 in table B

Ids 7 to 9 in table C

...

Would anyone have a suggestion for the best way to do this?

I've tried with counters and feature holders but I haven't been successful. Strangely, I get something like

table A : 1,2,3

table B : 1,2,3

table C : 4,5,6

although it seems to me I'm doing the exact same thing between table A and B and between table B and C...

 

Cheers !

As long as your counters have the same name and the scope is set to global you shouldn't have to do anything more

I see. So you have to set "Count start" to 0 although you expect it to continue from where the previous counter (with same Counter name and Global Count Scope) finished. That's what I've done now and it works.

Thanks ebygomm.
