Renaming a Sketched Point in Wildfire 5.0

How can I rename a sketched/geometry point in a datum curve sketch in Wildfire 5.0? I can rename the sketch in the model tree, but the point in the model still shows up as APNT_12.


In Wildfire 4.0, this was a "Sketched Point" feature and it showed up as a point in the model tree and it could be renamed in the tree and it would be renamed in the model as well.


Thanks!


Ted

If your sketch contains only one point, the point name shows up in the
tree and renaming the feature also renames the point. If there is more
than one point in the sketch, then the feature name is different than
the point name. That was true in WF4 and earlier; I don't have WF5 to
play with.



In WF4 you go to Edit -> Setup -> Name -> Other and pick the point that
you want to rename. Hopefully WF5 is similar.

They changed it in WF5...now you need to create a datum curve sketch, and you use a "geometry point" in the sketch, then that will turn into a datum point in the model. There isn't a "Sketched Datum Point" feature anymore like in WF4...
