If I have this leagal code:
Code: [Select]  SynEdit2 = TMyCloneOfSynEdit.Create(self);
  SynEdit2.parent := Self;
  SynEdit2.name := 'SynEdit2'

and place new SynEdit on form from toolbar,which happens to be
automaticaly named 'SynEdit2' all OK up to that point.
Compile does not run coz of
Code: [Select]SynEdit2 = MyCloneOfSynEdit.Create(self);

That is OK.

If I rename last added SynEdit in prop box to SynEdit3 all code in
first code segment in this post
gets automaticaly repaired to SynEdit3.

That is bad.

In case none noticed that.
No panic for couple of lines, but one could have more lines and that
would be a real prob.
Mybe it can be avoided.

No, It isn't bug, it is good feature to automatic rename the component
names in source.

You don't need to set name property of the runtime created components,
so SynEdit2.name := 'SynEdit2' is not needed.
But if you name it, then use better name to avoid conflict with
automatic created components.
i.E. SynEdit2.name := 'SynEditXY2'
