Rename Selected Objects. Provides a means to select and edit the name of any object in SA.
Rename Objects by Assigning Unique Names. Provides a means to automatically removing duplicate names. Occasionally, you will be presented with a file in which several objects that have the same name. This is sometimes the case when importing an external CAD file, for instance. You can easily automatically rename a series of objects, ensuring that they all have unique names SA will rename the objects by appending the type of object with a unique number and using that for the new name.
To Rename Objects Using Unique Names:
From the menu, select Rename>Objects by Assigning Unique Names.
At the prompt, select the objects to rename.
SA will rename each of the objects in turn, ensuring that the names are unique.
Rename Objects using Naming Pattern offers the same capabilities as renaming points using a naming pattern. You can enter a prefix, %D (to define an increment), and a suffice with the new name and the objects will be renamed using the selection order.
Rename Relationships using Naming Pattern opens up this same capability for use with relationships. For GR-Features this will rename both the Relationship and the measured geometry and cardinal points but will not change the names of the nominal geometry.
