Question:
System components have different numbers after name. e.g. End Plate (144). Custom components have number (1). How can I add a number to my custom component? 

Answer:
All custom components get number 1 as a default. It cannot be changed. You can always write a number into custom component's name so it would be for example "My component (999) (1)". To make it searchable in Applications & Components Catalog, add the number to the tag.  Click the small arrow next to component name in catalog and then click the + symbol to add the tag.
