Changing the numbers in a list in a drawing note

Hi all. I remember in a recent Onshape update (but can't remember which) we got the ability to manually adjust the numbering of lists in note on Drawings, but I cannot recall how to do it. I tried looking in Help, and the AI advisor offered the following;
"In Onshape, you can easily modify numbered lists in notes by manually overriding the default numbering sequence. When creating multiple numbered lists, you can restart the numbering at any point or choose a completely different numbering scheme. The platform intelligently understands your numbering intentions, allowing you to start a new list from one or enter a custom sequence like 101, 201, 301. This feature is particularly useful for creating documentation with categorized or group note numbering that follows specific company standards."
However, it does not explain how you can chance what the numbers are. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
