Matisse - Renaming Autogenerated Objects
I am trying to have meaningful object name appear in the Netbeans 5.5 IDE after I drag GUI components onto the design page. So far, I cannot rename them from their auto-generated names.
Example: I added a JMenuItem from the palette onto a Jmenu , and its name shows as "jMenuItem1". In the properties menu, I can change the value in the name and tooltip fields easily, but that does not affect the name displayed in the Navigator panel. In the source view, the declaration of the jMenuItem1 is highlighted in blue, telling me that I should not edit it there.
Any ideas as to how I can rename these objects?
