renameClonesWhenFamilyIsRenamed

layoutXL renameClonesWhenFamilyIsRenamed boolean { t | nil }

Description

Renames the member clones with the new clone family name using the <Clone Family Name>_index nomenclature.

If the clone family is renamed to myDiffPair and renameClonesWhenFamilyIsRenamed is set to t, the member clones are renamed as myDiffPair_0, myDiffPair_1, myDiffPair_2, and so on.

When renameClonesWhenFamilyIsRenamed is set to nil, the clone members retain their original group name even when the clone family is renamed.

The default is t, which means the member clones are renamed when the family name is changed.
