Rename Objects

Every object in your model is represented in the Model Explorer by its name. Just as you can rename an object using on-diagram editing in the Diagram Window, you can rename an object directly in the Model Explorer.

Follow these steps:

  1. Click the object name, and then press F2.

    An edit box opens around the object name.

  2. Enter the new object name.

    The new name of that object appears throughout the Model Explorer and the model.

Note: Any unique name rules that you select for your model are enforced when you rename an object in the Model Explorer.
