The dialogue in FM-12 and FM-11:

Klaus,

Actually you can, but it's not properly documented. When you select the Graphics Frame, it's name shows in the Status Bar. You are then supposed to click on the name in the Status bar to get the Frame Name window in order to change it. [There are other operations that also now have this non-intuitve user-be-damned approach.] Why it's not part of the Graphics Frame Properties is a mystery that was pointed out numerous times during the pre-release programs for 11 & 12 [but I guess it was too great of an effort to rectify something that was coded without the benefit of end-user input].
