- I just discovered the intuitive way to generate numbers is with the range operator, it appears *this is limited to 9,999* But we do now have the add operator - Perhaps if we do use a filter to list numbers we should first indicate the number that will be listed (count) so before you hit a button you can decide if you are happy for it to display a large number of items.
