Properties dialogue box look different

[Artscape Design Ltd]

I am watching the Landmark essentials seminar.  When I use the  "create an object from shape" command and I select for example Hardscape,  it brings up a dialogue box that is different from the one shown in the seminar.  There is no field to name the object.  The other options are the same such as tag display, joint pattern etc.  Any clues why it is different or how to name my hardscape object?  Thanks

compare the version of software you are running vs what is being used in the seminar….

that’s why.

thanks jeff, not sure how to see which version they are using but that could be the difference.  Still not sure how to name my object as my dialogue box doesn't give me an option to do that.

Hardscapes changed in VW2022 + now use styles, and instead of the 'Hardscape Object Settings' dialog we have the 'Hardscape Preferences' dialog which has some different settings, including the loss of the 'Name' parameter. But you can still name the Hardscape after the fact in the 'General' pane in the OIP.
