Hello.
I was wondering, is it possible to change the feature name of an element.
I am working with features for property boundaries and that used to be called boundaries_Confirmed but I need to change the name to boundaries_Georeferenced (I'm using example names here).
I changed the level name in Bentley Map and changed the feature name in Geospatial Administrator. However there is still a number of native feature instances where the feature name has not changed. Is there a way to change this or do I need to draw new features, copy attributes between features and delete the old ones?
Regards,

Bjorn,
Yes, features can be renamed programmatically using code that updates the .name and .alias properties on the feature instance then calls the .write method. Attached is a VBA example which illustrates one way in which this can be done.
