Naming Objects

Giving objects clear names makes it easier to organize and manage complex assets.

Renaming Objects

1. Select the object or objects.
2. Choose Object > Rename or press F2.
3. Enter the new name in the Rename dialog.
4. Press Enter or click OK.

You can also rename the active object directly in the Inspector.

Name Uniqueness

Object names must be unique within the current asset.

If the chosen name already exists, Foxel adds a numeric postfix automatically. For example, Tree may become Tree1.

When renaming multiple objects at once, Foxel also adds postfixes as needed to keep all names unique.

Name Formatting

Object names are normalized automatically.

Foxel converts names to Title Case, where the first letter is uppercase and the remaining letters are lowercase. Names are also case-insensitive, so Tree and tree are treated as the same name.

Naming Rules

Object names must follow these rules:

1. The name must contain at least one character.
2. Allowed characters are a-z, A-Z, 0-9, _, and -.
3. Other special characters are not allowed.
