Thank you for your reply!

I tried out the navigator, but there is no way to rename the item there. I
tried it with some shapes and text boxes. I can select them there, pop down the
menu, select "Format" - "Name" and then the name can be changed.

I see a few possibilities there: A right click menu point "Rename" which pops
open the rename dialog or something similar would be helpful.

Thanks, bye
