Ah, thanks.
I removed checkmark at "Use labels of folio instead of their Id"
Yes it I have forgot that i changed that.

I did not understand what that description meant.
wonder if it can be improved...
"Don't expand variables of folio Id"  ?

I have removed "%id(%total)" from folio properties and yes it is gone from parts list.
To get numbering in the "Folio:" field in the template, i replaced "%folio" with "%folio-id(%folio-total)" and i get nice numbering there.

Maybe the default template should better be like that?

Thank you for the really quick reply, Nuri
Ah, OK... i will see if i see that clearly later...i dont now but with a bit sleep maybe...

I could not find a way to invalidate an entered bug?

OK, your choice of course

Minor correction: Actually here in sv location, QET defaults to use en labels and english interface, which is good as everybody in sweden learn english, but few learn frenc.

We are used to and satisfied that less common programs have interfaces in english.

Thank you for that trust
I am however already top loaded with both work and free project jobs (mainly Mageia tester)
I have already taken extra load on myself switching to use QET and feedbacking on it, etc

Maybe later, however

Until then i will just cannibalise on the <en> tag and/or use swedish .emt filenames...
-got to get jobs done!

Hi Yuri
I can happily send you symbols when I am satisfied with the project.
Beware though that i mostly create them like i want, which is by a combined frustration and experience from looking at too many completely different looking "standards" and programs...  So the are probably rather "personal" and "unique" colored by my own taste.

I have no experince of designing and using of PID symbols (except from reading diagrams with them)

I could not see how that would reach my goal better than my attempt above...?
but i may have missed something as i do not understand french (Tried also google translate, but... )

Let me explain by example what I really want.
See top row of the last screen-shot I posted above;

1)
On each slave i want to put a short visible descriptive label;
on the switch "sw top pos", on the valves "coil down" and "coil up" respectively.
I then want those texts to show up automatically at the master together with slave coordinates, like this:

sw top pos : 1-A3
coil down : 1-A5
coil up : 1-A7 

2)
On the master i want to put a descriptive label like "Lifter Unit" optimally placed right below the main label, before xref list.  So now it looks like this:  (large typeface emulated by me using spaces)

 C V 1 5
Lifter unit
sw top pos : 1-A3
coil down : 1-A5
coil up : 1-A7

... I then want all connected slaves to display that description too, i.e for the switch placed like this:

 C V 1 5
Lifter Unit
1-B9

Edit to make it visually complete:
As said at 1) above the switch also show:

sw top pos

/Edit

Trick to make it list what kind of slaves it is:
Use the existing system to get prefixes in cross ref:

1) Set master elements to be type "Switch/button"
2) Set slaves to be Power or Delayed to be referenced like "Coil:" / "MoCyl:"
(and use NO or NC type switch depending on in which column you want it listed,
could be used for differentiating opening and closing valve pilot solenoids)
For "Signal:" use Normal type switch (change over) (it will always be listed in both columns)
3) Set up use of prefixes for "Switches":
Right click project in tree
  Project Properties
    New Folio
      Cross references
Type: select "Switches"
[x] show power contaxts in cross
Set prefixes:
Power contacts : "Coil:" (and set Coil slaves to identify as Power contact)
Delayed: "MoCyl:" (and set motor & cylinder to identify as Change Over contact)
Change Over: "Signal:" (and set sensors slaves slaves to identify as Delayed contact)

Auxiliary NO or NC contacts can still be used and do not get prefixes.

Little problems
1: "Signal:" parts get listed in both crossref columns
2: An Aux change over contact get "Signal:" prefix
3: I can not use Switches type master for anything else than Aux or they will get the prefixes

Then add a textfield, select it, and in the information panel select the tag "label" like so:

OK thanks that is one way to do it
I want something less easy to foul up.
I have been experimenting with making master and slave symbols for representing the same part in elecric, pneumatic and mechanical drawing.
The way i think is that user and service personnel first look at the process drawing; the "big stuff" in the hall.
So i made the process parts master.
Say you have a process valve, operated pneumatically, and with electric feedback:
The valve is on process drawing, with a list of linked items positions, and annotation
On the electrical drawing are the valves position switches,
And on pneumatic drawing is the actuator part of the valve - and they all have same label
Then there is the piloting/control valve that have its master part on pneumatic drawing, and coil on electric drawing.
I can also divide sensors in two parts: part with the measurement connection, and the electric connection part.
Or a valve with servo motor separated.
A 5/3 valve with two coils have naturally two coils in electric drawing.
Complex valves/actuators may have more tan one actuator and more than one feedback
I could have mechanical drawings too, floor plans where process parts locations are indicated...
Still playing and learning...

Oops!
Thank you for checking
I used the correct command locally but forgot to update wiki!
Fixed.
