Rename Object

(Template Builder) Right-click component → Rename Shared Dialog Box

Renames an object.

For the option:	Do the following:
Old Name	Enter the name of the object you want to rename. Tips on Entering Object Names in Text Boxes.
New Name	Enter a new name for the object. Note: The name you enter corresponds to the name you would enter if creating a new object, not the name the template-based product would generate. In most cases, your template-based product will add a prefix to the name you entered, to identify the entity type and symmetry characteristics. For example, in Adams Car, a new single hardpoint you created with a name of sub_frame will be stored internally with the name hps_sub_frame. (Learn about Hardpoints). Therefore, if you want to rename the hardpoint from sub_frame to subframe, you enter subframe in the New Name text box, not hps_subframe. Adams Car ensures that the correct prefix continues to be used with the new name.
