Hello,

I just renewed my license and updated the program to the latest version 6.7.2 because I was using version 6.4.0 until now.

After the update I noticed that for some reason the object ID is no longer allowed to be just a number as it was possible in version 6.4.0. rather, it is necessary to enter any letter, which in my specific case represents a big problem.

Could it be possible to restore the option for the object ID to still be just a number as it was until version 6.4.0. Thank you.

this is from version 6.4.0.

In your case you don’t need the ID

Although ids which contain only digits are valid in HTML, they cause issues when part of CSS selectors (read [more here](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/id)). This is why the app doesn’t allow them. There are many different ways to achieve what you need to do, as @kuligaposten suggested.

Although you have a valid point, sometimes the “.” is necessary if you are using the tool to generate interfaces for other platforms/frameworks. Is there a way to allow attribute id to contain “.” as a valid value.
