There are different options to rename an Baustein. To do so, select the element(s) required and use the function "Rename" in the ribbon.
After selecting the function, a dialog appears which displays all marked elements. Here, the user can make all settings and changes relevant to the renaming function for each element. The window behaves in the same way as other Massenänderungen. If several elements are to be processed simultaneously, the "Baustein umbenennen" function can be used, which is available via the "Mass change" button.
Rename element dialog
In the "Mass renaming" area, codes can be generated. Here, it is possible to change values at defined code positions by selecting "Value" from the drop-down at the respective position and entering a different value in the empty field that appears. It is also possible to change positions of the code. To do so, select a different position in the drop-down of the respective position. A prefix can be added in front of the first position, which is put before the new code. A suffix can be added after the last position, which is put after the new code. By clicking "Apply", the new code (Index / Variant) is applied to all selected rows and inserted into the "Code-New" (Index-New / Variant-New) column.
Note: |
The code generator supports multiple selections with Ctrl or Shift. The minus button removes all selected rows, whereby "rows" here means the drop-downs. This means that the function corresponds to that of the context menu item "Delete row". If no row is selected, the last one is deleted. |
If the elements are additionally coded with index and/or variant, you can use the radio buttons "Index" and "Variant" to define whether these values are supposed to be kept, changed or removed.
Note: |
An element is NOT dupliziert by renaming it. |
