Name

The Channels tab's Name button allows the user to change the name of a channel within the GeoFluv Boundary that has been named according to GeoFluv™'s default automatic naming convention.

Left clicking on the Name button causes the Change Channel Name dialog box to appear on the screen. The user types the new channel name into the "Channel's name:" edit box and left-clicks the OK button to apply the new name.

The user can toggle the Change Channel Name dialog box's option to "Update tributary channel names" on or off. This option will automatically rename all channel's that are tributary to the channel named in the "Channel's name:" edit box using that new name. Note that if the toggle is off, the selected channel will be renamed, but the channel tributary to it will not, but may need to be manually renamed if its name includes a GeoFluv™ alpha-numeric portion, i.e., if Moose Creek RE1 is renamed Spruce Creek, its tributary's name, Moose Creek R1R1, will still include the now meaningless R1R1.

If the user does not want to use the default GeoFluv™ channel naming convention, they can rename the channels simply by toggling off the Update tributary channels names option and typing in any name.
