Can I change the name of FrontendApplication?

In our project Frontend (and Backend) how some specific meanings, hence the question. I tried just renaming the class, but the generated code (particularly, the presenters) still kept referencing FrontendApplication.

Is there an option to change that name?

Hello @MarPan ,

 

Since a lot of things are generated by the Generator, it seems hard to rename the FrontendApplication, it seems it would require changing the Generator.

In your project, does the name FrontendApplication interfere with other names?

No, the name doesn't interfere, it just creates a slight confusion with regards to our broader architecture. But it's not a showstopping thing.
It was enough to make me wonder if renaming is actually possible ;) would be cool to be able to define the name of main class in the Designer for example.

 

Thank you for the answer.

I totally understand your point but it is not something we frequently get request for.
Maybe we could have added "TGFX" in front of every name?

Either way, I am glad this is not blocking you.
