Symbols Repeating with Incremental Numbers

I'm trying to make a custom symbol that will act as a bubble number. We want to be able to have the number inside the bubble count up by one from its last iteration. The number in the bubble would need to be a variable text so we can always modify the number, and have it count up from the number input if the symbol is repeated from that iteration.


EX: I use my custom symbol to put a bubble on the drawing and change the number to 10. When right clicking on the "10" bubble and repeating the symbol, it should give me a bubble with the number 11 in it.

 

Is this something that would require the drawing to have custom parameters that calculate the last value and uses an equation to work? Is this possible to apply also to the repeat mode when putting the symbol on the drawing?

Hi,

my opinion ... OOTB Creo functionality does not enable you to do requested action.
