Now this default text is being pulled from the instance name. So in the entity info window which we've discussed in the past, in the outliner video, if you want to go review the outliner video, this will show you how to name entities. But this is default text being pulled from what we've named the group. You can also just click to set it, or you can override it by double clicking on it and choosing something different. Perhaps we want to choose the window size or a window type and call that out. So I'm going to call this Window1 and then click off of that.
