# 3.1.9 Namerules

Here you can set the attributes of the self-assigned names of already loaded files (the default settings for new resources can be set under Preferences/Default Namerules).

The first box determines wether upper/lower case should be considered or not when checking for duplicate names. The next two boxes specify which characters are valid in the first place and at other locations of the name. If 'Uppercase' or 'Lowercase' is selected, they are converted accordingly as you type letters. In the input fields characters can be specified which additionally should be permitted or excluded.

The maximum length is used to define the input length. ORCS allows names up to 32 characters. Note, however, that definition files of other formats my have different limitations. Interface files (* .HRD) allow, for example, only allows names up to 16 characters.

These settings do not affect the names that you have already assigned. Only newly entered names will be checked in this way.
