For New Files:

1. Create a new design - the parameter starts at v0
2. First save - parameter updates to v1
3. Second save - parameter updates to v2
4. And so on...

For Existing Files:

1. Open an existing file - the parameter is created with the current version number
2. Each save increments the version number automatically

Using the Version Number Parameter

Once installed, you can use the version_number parameter anywhere in Autodesk® Fusion®:

• In Title Blocks: Add it to your drawing templates
• In Text: Reference it in notes or annotations
• In File Names: Use it in naming conventions
• In BOM: Include it in parts lists

To insert the parameter in text, type: <version_number> or use the parameter picker.

Install:

1. Download the installer from the Autodesk App Store.
2. Right-click on the "Downloads" folder and select "Open in Finder".
3. Right-click on the "VxSmartVersioningParameter_macos.pkg" -> "Open With" -> "Installer".

Uninstall:

You can unload the add-in without uninstalling it by clicking the "Stop" button when the add-in is selected in the list box on the "Add-Ins" tab of the "Scripts and Add-Ins" dialog.

Unchecking "Run on Startup" causes the add-in not to be loaded in future sessions of Fusion.
