We are issuing an addendum where there are a few sheets that are being issued for the first time. Revision number system is using no number or letter in the titleblock for the first issuance of any sheet and then using a sheet based incremental 1,2,3 numbering for each revision the sheet gets. Since we are using a numbering scheme for this addendum, on the sheets that are being revised the title block and our revision triangles read the correct revision number for those sheets. However, for the sheets that are issued for the first time, the revision number on the title block reads 1. Is there a way to number the first issuance with no number even if the rest of the sheets use numbering for that revision?

You mean like the attached?
NOTE - To see the first non revision listed, you need to cloud. I would put that near the titleblock, I showed the cloud but you will want to turn that off in the revision settings.

I want Addendum #3 to show revision number on sheets we have issued previously like in the first example. But not to show any number in the second example where that sheet is issued for the first time in Addendum #3 (it currently says revision 1).

I don't understand what you are saying.
If you notice, I believe my example does exactly what you want. My Revision schedule is top down - not like your bottom up.

I need Addendum #3 revision to be numbered on sheets that were previously issued, but not numbered on sheets that are being issued for the first time. I don't understand how what you've shown achieves what I'm trying to do. I need different behavior on different sheets for the same revision.

I think I found a super lame workaround.
I created a duplicate addendum #3 in revisions that shows no numbering and used that revision for the new sheets. That way I can achieve no revision number on title block for Addendum #3 for new sheets while maintaining revision number on titleblock and triangles for the rest of the sheets.

Come on - you can't follow the next sequence?.......I don't know if you mean a new sheet issued after the initial so I included that.
Look at these two sheets and pay attention to the revision setup! Again - you would turn off the cloud and tag for the sheet issue "revisions" sequence 1 and sequence 3 in this case.

For the second sheet, can you get rid of the "a diff sheet issue" and have addendum #2 as the original sheet issue for that sheet. Addendum #2 should show no revision number in the title block in the second sheet, but it should show a revision number on the first sheet.

WWHub, can you please help:
I'm using your attachment on thread #7 as example. Revision #1 and #3 are not Numberic nor Alphabetic. What could be the reason that Revision #1 is appearing on the revision schedule but revision #3 is NOT? This is happending to my project. I had to manually input the revision on the schedule.
Thank you in advance.

In my earlier post, look at the image to the right. Sequence 1 and sequence 3 are set to none. You have 3 choices - non - numeric or alphabetic. Once nummeric is set the first time, the actual revision number will start with 1. You can then have other sequences that are none or alphabetic (the first starts with A) but the second numeric sequence will be 2....etc.

Thank you, WWHub for the quick reply! But my problem is not the Numbering or Alphabetics. It is having the None revisions showing up on the revision schedule. Can you please take a look on these attachments:
Sequence #27 is assigned None in the Numbering column. Its description is appearing on the schedule.
Sequence #38 & 39 are also assigned None in the Numbering column. These revisions are NOT appearing on the schedule.
All other numbered/alphabetic revisions appear on the schedule.
How can I get Sequence #38 & #39 description appear on the schedule like others.
thank you again!

Please read my very first post. It explains how to get the revision to show in the schedule.

I did sketch up the clouds and tag the revision sequence #38 & 39, but they still don't show up on the schedule. All other revisions do.
Thanks,

Another strange thing happened. When I added clouds for Seq. #38 & 39, it makes Seq. #27 disappeared on the schedule too. #27 always shown up on schedule even though it is also assigned "None" on the Numbering column.
