Hi Michael,

Would it be possible in the future to add into "Edit object name" dialog box the roll up menu with list of object names, which are already created in scene browser?

It could be quite useful for quick geometry association with objects with same name.

If you want to set the object name on the selected objects to one that is already in the scene browser you can do that in v5 by clicking on the name in the scene browser and pick "Assign selection here".

Only for information - I've found out that right click on existing object name in Scene browser does the same operation as "Assign selection here" function.

Hi Mik,

Yup, and also Ctrl+click on the object name is a shortcut for Rename (renames this item do not need to set selection first)
and Shift+click on the object name is a shortcut for Move (into/out of groups).
