I don't quite understand how instances are automatically named if the previous instance has already a name.

I am using "clear the instance" to create a new instance.

I don't know what the difference between the two projects is. Sometimes the instance name gets automatically created and sometimes it does not.

Also I think there is a small bug when I want to rename the instance...

I double click on a already named instance to rename it. The name is now marked black. I want to delete the name but when I press backspace nothing is happening. I have to press "right" and then delete every letter with backspace

The first issue where new instances get named automatically must be an error of some kind. I thought it is a normal behavior that I don' t fully understand.
Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce it but when it appears again I will try to catch the bug

But the second issue must be a small bug..

Also a small annoying bug is this:
Using the keyframer, click in the "X" position field here..

The coordinate will be marked black now. In my case it is "555". If I enter "123" now, the "555" will disappear and be replaced by "123".
So far so good...
Now, hit TAB to jump to the "Y" coordinate below. The coordinate will be also marked black now. But when I try to type something, it does not disappear. I also cannot hit backspace to delete the number when it is marked black

Is it only on my computer like that or is this a bug?

Indeed, this is not intended, we'll look into this bug.
