[Feature Request] Multiple selection rename

rchayes

Would it be possible to get a group rename feature added?
Example, I have a bone, a slot, and a skin and I want to change the name of all three of them to another name or to have all matching names. To do this right now, I would have to select the bone, slot, and skin and rename them individually. I'd like to be able to select all 3 and rename them and give them all the same name at once.

I dont know how big of a deal this is or how much trouble it would be. Just something I'd like to see added eventually.

Is it often you want to rename multiple things to the same name? I guess only when you have a bone with a single slot and a single attachment, then usually the same name is used. Maybe we can detect this when you rename the bone and prompt to rename the other two?

On the project that I am working on now I am seeing this to be the case quite often. I have a character that has 4 directional states and I'm basically reusing the skeleton that I made for the side state and changing that up for the up and down states. Though thinking about it this might have to do with some minor ocd where I like to rename things and keep everything organized 😉

I do like the idea of where I rename a bone it will ask to rename any slots and skins I have attached.
