[Solved] How do I tweak property names in the model?

[sitefinitysteve]

It's generating ID columns as I_D (so logID is log_i_d)....is there any way to get some fine detail on the names in the domain model?

Hello Steve,

I suggest you reading the following help articles “Naming Rules Dialog” and “How to: Modify Naming Settings” which demonstrate how to manage the naming settings and rules for a domain model.
Hope you will find the provided information useful.

I thought the naming setting dialog was just for mapping an existing table to an entity...

Like I have a "Name" property and it's going in as "nme" in the database. So would that be the Pluralization UnChanged I would be setting?...it's not really pluralization though, and I don't see any other property which references that

Hello Steve,

Actually the Naming Rules Dialog refers to the class, property and field names. I want to apologize for my misleading answer in the previous post.
You could set the column names manually using the Table Editor. If you have not explicitly created a table for this class, you could use default mapping for a start. It will automatically create a table and map the class to this table. To achieve this, do the following:
-   Select the class from the visual designer;
-   Open the Mapping Details Editor – Table Mappings section;
-   Check the Use Default Mapping setting which will create the default table for this class;
-   Locate the table under Model Schema Explorer;
-   Use the Table Editor to edit the column names;
We will try to improve the naming strategy for creation and migration scripts for Q1.
Hope that helps.

Best wishes,
