How do I rename a surface in the latest DS (4.10)?

Hi all,

I'm attempting to rename the surfaces of G2M's gens to use M4's gens texture with the help of Slosh's M4 for G2M. The instructions say to just double click the surface name to be able to rename it, but that's not working in the latest DS. Is there a new/different step? Does DS have UV tools built in?

Thanks in advance for any help.

    You are using the Tool Settings pane with the Surface Selection tool active? it worked (admittedly using a cylinder to test rather than loading a full figure).

    Where do I double click? I have that window open with surface selection as the active tool, but double clicking on the name of the surfaces in the surfaces tab does nothing. I've tried the regular ones and the legacy.

    Geometry Editor, not Surface Selection - then there will be list of the different groups types in the Tool Settings pane, that's what you double-click.

    Thank you! I read your latest reply, then re-read the docs, and I'm not sure how I missed that (it was at the end of a long day in DS). It's working now.

    Thank you!  This was useful to me too!  I also had problems trying to find out how to rename Surfaces.
