I created a New Plane using the Mid-Plane option. I tried to rename it to Plane -4 but only garbage characters showed up. I cannot change these.

Is this still happening, with the latest version? We have fixed a similar issue in 3.0.6

Sometimes the characters are not garbage! Here I typed ‘Front’ and got ‘process’? I don’t believe that I use this word anywhere?

Can you check this with the last update (3.0.7)?
