symbol-instance-renamer icon indicating copy to clipboard operation
symbol-instance-renamer copied to clipboard

changed behavior so now symbol instances are renamed to the last portion of a symbol master name after the "/"

@sonburn I apologize for any mess I might have created. Ideally we'd give users the ability to choose the desired behavior and choose "The / Full / Name" or simply "Name".

We can remove if we only want one of the two behaviours but I wanted my intentions to be obvious. I'll reach out via Slack too :)

What do you think?

It's a good idea and is in line with some other feature request(s) about some control over the name during the process, but the way it's implemented needs to be different. What you are wanting to achieve should actually be available for all flavors of the plugin, not just the at the Page level as you had implemented.

As the plugin is headless right now, a new option should be added to provide an interface to run the plugin in one of the existing methods, but with additional options for controls over the name.

I'll start working on this for an update to the plugin!

@sonburn yes! My coding skills are pretty basic. I have been using this modified version but I’d love to have more control over the scope (selection / symbols within selected artboards / instances of specific symbol across pages / all instances of all symbols)! - love your plugin!
