Thanks Graham, that worked great but I am having one problem. The first line of your formula gets placed into my first placeholder.
Example: <PortalObj portalFlags="16" numOfRows="1" initialRow=$ seq 16 32>

You can combine Multiple Carets and Copy + Paste to achieve this easily.
Find a list of the numbers you want to use, I assume you’re capable of generating the list in some way, but I like using the `seq` command in the terminal such as:
$ seq 16 32 16 17 […snip...] 31 32
Note: It is important that they be separated by new line characters.
Copy this list.
Select your first placeholder: “##"
<PortalOBj portalFlags="16" numbOfRows="1" initialRow=“##”>
Press Control + W, this selects the next placeholder. Repeat until your selection contains all of your placeholders.
Paste.

want to replace the matched text with a sequential number.
Here is my current replacement string: $1##$2 How can I replace the ## with a sequential number?
I do not think that what you want is possible using only regular expressions and “Find & Replace”. It is possible and not to complex using a programming language. The following code does what you want:
#!/usr/bin/env python from re import compile from sys import stdin, stdout regex = compile( """(<PortalOBj portalFlags="16" numbOfRows="1"initialRow=")\d+(">)""") index = 16
def create_subtitute_function(): def substitute(match): global index replacement = "{}{}{}".format(match.group(1), index,match.group(2)) index += 1 return replacement
return substitute text = regex.sub(create_subtitute_function(), stdin.read()) stdout.write(text)I attached a bundle which contains a command that uses the above code. To install the bundle just double click it. You can apply the substitution on some text by pressing the key combination “^⌥⌘R”. Since the above is my code I would be careful when you use the command though :).
For example, I want the first sequential number to be 16. Here is a screen capture: Thanks!
Kind regards, René
P.S.: You can create a screenshot of a single window by using the key combination “⇧⌘4”. After that just hit “Space” and a click on the window you would like to make a screenshot of. This way you do not need to crop the picture.
