Renaming a Key or Value

The PackDesigner mode Visual Designer contains a Registry view with all contents stored within a packaging projects Registry table. To rename a key or value by using the Registry view interface, users have the following options at hand:

Rename a Registry Key

Within the package registry browser, right-click any key, and select Rename from the context menu.

Within the package registry browser, left-click any key, and hit F2 on the keyboard.
 
Either way, the key name is set into direct inline edit mode, and starting to type immediately changes the name.
Hit Enter on the keyboard to trigger the automatic input validation procedure, and save the new key name.
Use Escape to restore the former key name.
 

Within the package registry browser, right-click any key, select Properties from the context menu, and modify the Name property within the now displayed properties dialog.
 
Click OK or Apply to trigger the automatic input validation procedure, and save the new key name.
