Browsing the Lazarus sources, I didn't see any such way (it seems that
the logic to remove 'T' from ClassName is just hardcoded in some
places), so I'm guessing it's 2., but wanted to make sure :)
To answer my own question, the logic is inside
TCustomFormEditor.CreateUniqueComponentName, and there doesn't seem to
exist a reasonable way to change it.
Right, you are not the only one having trouble with component names :-(
In theory, I could try assigning my
own Name in constructor looking at my Owner, but then I also need to
make sure myself that the name is unique (add unique number suffix),
opening a can of worms (since I would have to replicate part of
TCustomFormEditor.CreateUniqueComponentName implementation then, and
fear that it can change one day :).
I already had to copy and implement my own version, for the dockable IDE
layout save/restore.
I guess the class should just be renamed.
As a workaround, yes. But there should exist better means for dealing
with component names, independent from the form designer (which is not
normally part of an application).
