Important Warnings

⚠️ WARNING: Renaming an attribute in the database will NOT rename it in any configuration files, which may render the configuration file unable to be opened.

Recommended Approach:

1. Open the configuration file in the ACMA editor
2. Rename the attribute using the UI
3. Save the configuration file

The ACMA editor will automatically update all references to the attribute in the ACMAX file with the new name when you save.
