Replicating fixtures and renumbering them

Hi guys
i wonder how you deal with that....
lets say i got 6x Mac 2k with numbers 1 thru 6 and 10 Mac 600 Wash with numbers 101 thru 110.
No when i replicate the 6 Mac 2k and Change the fixture to be Alpha Spots then the numbers are 7 thru 12 showing copy from 1 ... and so on.
I want the Alpha Spots to be number 1 thru 6. Therefor i need to renumber the Mac 2k.... lets say to 1001 thru 1006.
The Alpha Spots are still showing copy from 1 ... and so on instead of copy from 1001....

I imagine you got a bunch of replicating to do.
How you renumber fixtures and stuff to not get crazy from what you replicated?
I find it quiet confusing with just replicating 3 types of lamps.

The copy from shows always the number from the originial where it was copied, when you renumber the original after cloning the comment wont change....
After cloning the console handles those cloned fixtures anyway as an individual fixture that has nothing to do with its original, even it plays back the same values

Keeping track of replicated fixtures was one thing that was easier on Hog 3. In the patch window it used to tell you the fix number in the first column, the id that the console uses for each fixture rather than the user number. This meant I always knew where my original fixtures were. It's a bit of a shame that has gone in Hog 4.
