- Select Storyboard > Rename Scene.
The Rename Scene dialog box opens.
- In the New name field, type the new name for the selected scene. You can type either a number or a name.
- Use the Renaming Rule for Subsequent Scene menu and determine if the next scenes should be renamed. The Renumbered Scene Names section displays the current and new names for all the scenes that will be affected by the renaming process.

- Select the Do not show this dialog automatically option to prevent it from automatically opening every time you move scenes around.
How to rename a scene using the Panel view
