--- Comment #16 from DM <miscellane...@paintdrawer.co.uk> ---
That is an extremely enlightening comment, and I apologise for just noticing it
now. Surely if name is critical to operations, then it's a bug in itself for
two objects to have the same name (like two people having the same national
identity number) or so easily to do so? how could it happen? I copy items to
duplicate them all the time, would you be suggesting that copying them retains
the same name (just tried it and it seems so!) and that I need to rename every
item I copy? that sounds an extraordinary deficiency to me, since copying
drawing objects like arrows and text boxes to reuse is something you do all the
time to maintain a common style throughout a document. What sort of
complications occur through having objects the same name in terms of everyday
document-making? Are there occasions when two items having the same name are
useful? if not, shouldn't copies just generate new names?
I would be very keen to hear your reply here, since the whole situation of
Libreoffice constantly mangling everything up drives me crazy... thanks!
David
