About Alphanumeric Sequences in Names
You can add alphanumeric sequences to the name_format parameter of an instance. Use one of the following patterns to add the corresponding alphanumeric name sequence to the instance name. For example, if the name_format parameter of a shape is P_#trunc#, then the instances of the shape are sequentially named P_a, P_b,..., P_ak, P_al. if the name_format parameter of a shape is P_#TRUNC#, then the instances of the shape are sequentially named P_A, P_B,..., P_AK, P_AL.
