Is there anyway to change the default naming of a new instance ie the
auto fill box that takes the class name and then adds _1 _2 etc. For
example say I have a catalogue of parts I wanted to reference indexed
by section number. I want to have  hierachical classes as follows.

Section_1
          Section1_1
                       Section1_1_1
                       Section1_1_2
                                Section_1_1_3 (auto named instance,
not class)
                      Section1_1_3 (would not be allowed as name
already used)
          Section1_2

Section_2
          Section 2_1
          Section 2_2

Section_n
          Secton n_1 .........

If the sections are created at design time then all is well, ie any
instance added to any section or subsection will name itself class_n ,
however a problem arises if I wish to subseqentely add a new section
or subsection at a later date, ie as shown above if instance have
already been created in a section then the correct name for any new
subsection would not be allowed as it will already have been used.

Therefore is it possible to a) change the default behaviour of the
auto fill
                                     b) is there anyway to
automatically add a suffix or prefix to the subject name
                                     c) would it be possible to "
construct " new instances , i can do this quite succesfully with
regard to other properties, values etc but not yet having a complete
command of sparql and tbc as of yet, I am struggling to see how/if
this is possible for initial subject names.
                                      d) what would be the impact of
using anonymous names for each newly created instance, I would like to
avoid this if possible but if it is the best solution then please
advise. If this is the case then is there anyway to turn on the check
box in the new instance dialog permantley. I am going to have a lot of
data to input by hand and any time saving would be very helpfull
indeed.

Thank you once again in advance for your continued help

Regards

John
