Rename option missing

[Anonymous]

Occasionally the right click 'rename' option for bodies or sketches in the browser or timeline is missing.

I'm pretty sure that the browser never had a Rename context menu item.  To rename in the browser, you need to do a "slow double click" on the text to enable rename action.

Hi Jeff,

I certainly does show in the right click menu on the timeline and I am almost certain I have used it in the browser as well.  I had forgotten the slow double click method.

And in a similar vane, where has the 'Save as STL' option disappeared to?

It appears there has been an update and 'Save as STL' has become 'Save as Mesh'.

yes, Rename is in the context menu for a timeline item, but has (as far as I know) never been there for the browser.  The only reason I know this is that it bugs me, too, and has bugged me for years.  I agree that browser selections should also offer Rename, but it never quite gets to the top of the list...  Someday, I hope to fix it...

Thanks Jeff.  It is simple fixes like this not getting implemented that really annoy users. 😉

Jeff,

I've also noticed with the 10.2.10440 build that if you go to rename a body in the browser the edit doesn't stick sometimes, only a File save, close and reopen seems to fix it.
