Changing the Name Displayed when showing the favorites

I work on a few projects at a time, with each of the project data
located in different folders. When we are making a 'brainstorm' idea
change to the parts, they go into a sub-folder located under the main
project folder, which is called 'experimental'. For example, there is a
folder called proe/housing/experimental and a folder called
proe/mount/experimental. I add these to my favorites so that I don't
have to click deep up and down the file tree to open files.



The issue is that these show in favorites as 'experimental' and
'experimental[1]', and I have no way of knowing which main project these
folders belong to (i.e. housing or mount). I would like to rename the
description so that I know which one is which, and not rely on my memory
to know that the [1] file is for the mount project.



Is there a way to rename what is displayed in the favorites folder?

Go to the favorites tab above the model tree, right click on one and
select rename.

Thanks Doug, that is it. I was trying to rename it while opening
files, and it would not work.
