Possible to retain clip name after bounce?

Hi Folks,
 
Does anyone know if there is a setting that would allow individual clips to retain their names after applying bounce to clips on them? I'm not bouncing multiple clips together, so there wouldn't be a conflict of which name to associate the new clip with, though I can see why the potential for that scenario may mean that no such setting exists.
 
Anyway, just wondering if this is possible, as it would save me a bunch of time in the project I'm working on. 
 
Thanks,
Ben
 
 

 Would an "Automaticly Name Clips After Bounce to Clips" Feature Request generate any momentum? I think I would benefit from this.

 Of course an acceptable implementation of this feature would not limit undo.

But due to what scook pointed out, at minimum, it would have to add something like "Clip name [bounced]." But then it's not the same name, which was the original request.
 
A bigger problem is determining what happens if you're bouncing clips with different names, which is extremely likely unless all the clips were derived from the same file and obtained by splitting a single clip. Sonar would have no way of knowing which clip you intended to use as the "master" name.
 
Think about it: if the Inspector is open, it's one Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V. If the Inspector isn't open, you simply need to type I. I think specifying what was wanted for your specific bounce situation would likely not be much simpler. You'd probably have to select the clip with the "master" name and somehow specify it's a name that should persist during the bounce operation. I think that when you totaled up the keystrokes to specify what you want for a unique bouncing situation, it wouldn't be much different from ctrl+c then ctrl+v and would probably involve mouse clicks as well.
 
One workaround is that if the clip should have the same name as the track, you can drag it to the desktop and drag it back in again. It will assume the project name and track name when you drag it to the desktop. But I still think ctrl+c and ctrl+v is easier.

I just thought of one option...when you chose bounce to clips, it could open up a dialog box where you could name the bounced clip. That would save one mouse click:
 
Click in bounce dialog box field > enter name 
 
Compared to:
 
Click on clip > click in Clip name > enter name
 
But I'm not sure saving one click justifies having to deal with a dialog box every time you want to bounce a clip. Also. ctrl+C and ctrl+V (four keystrokes) might take less time than typing in the name anyway, unless the name is shorter than four characters.
 

 Or some kind of built in batch file thing where you can select a bunch of clips, and rename them all according to a windows explorer type of sorting list (track name, take number, name of preceding marker, whatever you want ). Existing clip names could be optionally overwritten or modified. This would replace the "Automaticly Name Clips After Bounce to Clips" thing I was talking about before. Am I getting carried away?

You can do this already. Select however many clips you want, open the Inspector's clip tab, and enter the clip name. This renames all selected clips. 

Yes, it renames all selected clips with whatever name you enter in the Inspector's Clip tab.
