I have been drawing many products, saved them, as well as did some renaming For those data files. The renaming process was simple and always succesfull.

Today I am stuck with my data file, I am UnAble to Rename my Shapr3D Data File.  
I do not know what’s wrong with me or with the Shapr3D App.  
Currently, I am using Shapr3D App Version 3.4.2 (2092).

I came across this while trying to figure out how to name or rename a design. They all have the label “design” but there appears to be no way to name them something relevant or have a version, etc.

Hm, actually you just have to tap there to rename it.

You know what… I was going into “edit” first to rename it. My bad. But this bring up the name “edit” and maybe it should be “manage” since you are not really editing anything. I think that’s what threw me off.

Thanks for your help and patience.
