  • In the Function Chooser, type ENTITY RENAME, and press ENTER.

Old Entity name

Enter the name of the entity which is to be changed. The entity to be renamed may be selected from a list by invoking the browser for this input field.

New Entity name

Enter the name to be used for this entity. An entity of this name must not already exist in the plot library.
