If the name you assign to an object is already used by another object, the name of this last object will be changed.[br][br]In the construction above, change the name of point [i]B [/i]to [i]A[/i]. [br][b]Note:[/b] Since a point [i]A[/i] already exists, this point will be renamed to [i]A[sub]1[/sub][/i].[br][br][i]GeoGebra [/i]usually automatically resolves dependencies. This means that the name of the object is also changed in its definition. [br][b]Note:[/b] Scripting involving objects that were assigned a new name need to be changed manually.
