Thanks a lot. That is a sensible way to manage the objects. Is this described in the documentation in some way ? From the Inital look, it doesn't seem to be obvious.
I will get back after checking the option to add objects automatically, but what can really improve things is a tool which can capture all the objects of the application with its own default properties (which we can define) for each class by the click of a button. Once it captures, we can rename them and edit the properties and so on.
And BTW, is there a way to share the Name map like saving it as a separate file and include in multiple projects etc. ?
There are various options for configuring and using automatic mapping/capture. But I don't really use them. I've been stung by automatic mapping often enough over the years that I just prefer to do it manually now. Takes a little longer up front obviously, but at least I know my references should be rock solid so pays off down the line.
