Rebar and fabric reinforcement now have number sequencing that matches with existing reinforcement. In assigned partitions, the rebar and fabric sheet numbers match those of the same type, size, material, and shape. The number for a rebar or fabric sheet instance may be viewed in the Properties palette under Identity Data.
