Hello Everyone,

Sorry for my noob question...but how would you go about adding a prefix to the selected objects in a scene? Like i'd have a button with a specific prefix, and as you click on it, it adds it to the selected object. I can't get the adding the prefix part to work... :(

Any help is greatly appreciated :D

Thanks in advance!

Hi Crono,


thePrefix = "Prefix_"
for o in (selection as array) do o.name = thePrefix + o.name


Should do the trick... :)

How about using the tool that has been there for years and is built in.
