Define the prefix naming and numbering for connectors

You can define automatic connector (stream) naming by setting a Port Type prefix and start number in the Port Editor.

Define automatic connecting prefix naming and numbering

1. Edit or create a new Port Type.

2. Expand the General section and enter the Name, Prefix and Start number of the Port Type.

   When you create a new connection from the port, the name of the connector is prefixed with the Prefix you define and each subsequent connection is numbered accordingly; for example, if you define a prefix of S and a Start number of 1, the first connection you create is prefixed with S1, the second is prefixed with S2, and so on. If the Prefix field is left blank, the prefix S is used and numbering starts at 1.
