Rename Joint Origin instances

[big_red_frog]

Hi There,

Can we please have the ability to rename joint origin instances.

When inserting parts into a design, and using the browser to select joints, if I have multiple joints for various important embedding / connection points, then I cannot tell which is which from the browser.

So for example if I had joint origins I had renamed to "surface flush" and "On surface" then my assemble joint workflow via the browser heirachy would be far easier.

Thanks.

And Construction Planes as well. These are really the same thread (can anyone merge these two together?).

Yes, agree with Asko, these are the same basic idea.  We should be able to rename any feature we would realistically want to find and enable/ disable.  It's "hunt and click" for these in the browser.

Thanks for the submission man - as of now, in respect to everything else we are working on, this topic has not been a priority in our development sechedule. With that said, it is a vaild idea, and we encourage the community, as well as the original author, to give this and other topics kudos since the more kudos  a topic gets, the more we take that topic into consideration. 

As a side note, we are also working on improving the IdeaStation itself, with better categorization and filtering, so that users can have a better experience voting for the ideas that they value more, and have an easier time finding topics to vote for. We'll keep you posted!

big_red_frog,

You can rename joints by selecting them in the browser and then when they are highlighted click on the name again.  Once you have renamed the joint press enter or click in model space.  Below is a link showing the process.
