• Animations - names are used in animations to mark objects which are to be tweened
by the exporter. See the Animations chapter (on page 537) for full details.

This dialog is modeless, so you can change the selection while the dialog is displayed. It
shows the names for the current selection. The text field at the top of the dialog shows
you how many objects are currently selected.

Adding names
To add a name to an object, select the object and open the NAMES dialog using the
button on the SELECTOR TOOL InfoBar or right click on the object and choose NAMES...

Type the new name into the APPLY NAME field, or use the drop down list on the same field
to select a name which is already used elsewhere in the current document. Click ADD.
You should see the name appear in the NAMES APPLIED list.

Names applied
The NAMES APPLIED field shows you the names applied to the current selection. If more
than one object is selected, a list of names is only shown if all objects in the selection
have exactly the same set of names applied. Otherwise “<many>” is displayed, indicating
that there are differences in terms of the names applied to different objects in the
selection.
To remove a name from the selected object(s), click the name in the NAMES APPLIED list
to select it and then click the REMOVE button.
