Auto renaming

Post by Grubber » 05 Jun 2014, 21:16

Hi guys,

Does any one know how to turn off auto renaming of elements by adding number to the end. In other words I want to have meshes to have the same name under different null objects.

Not possible with nulls. Use Models instead to have different local space for naming.

I would love it to work with null, but I will do with model.

Thanks a bunch!

It appears that model cannot have the same names even under different models... This is very annoying...
Any ideas to overcome it?

Not possible, model names are always in global naming space.
You can have:
Model1 -> cube(polymesh)
Model2 -> cube(polymesh)
null1 -> Model3-> cube(polymesh)
Model4 -> Model5- >cube(polymesh)
