1.On the Rename panel, select the all by id subpanel.
2.Use the switch to select the collector type you want to rename.
3.Click prefix = and enter the prefix that you want to use for the collector name.

This prefix, plus a number, will become the new name of every collector of the chosen type.  For example: if you specify "part" as the prefix, then all components of the chosen type will be renamed to "part1", part2", etc.

4.Click rename.

The names of all of the entities of the chosen type change, becoming a combination of the specified prefix plus a number.
