Unique Component creation naming error

Making a component with a number at the end of it’s name unique causes the number to be removed.

Example: I have a several components named <6x8>

If I make one of them unique it will get renamed <6x#1>

Expected name should be <6x8 #1>

Yes, already reported this bug in several topic, see e,g. here:

I would love it that it can use a kind of template or expandable tag/short, Like ‘SLS105’ to ‘SLS-38x105 #001

You can sign up at the SketchUp labs to take part in the early release of the SketchUp Assistant. It features AI functionality that can help you rename components using the outliner. There are a few examples available when you sign up to labs.
