Hi,
When I create a new application project, my program start with a Unit1 (I can easily rename), associated with a "Form1" I can't rename.
How can I change the name of this "form" ?

In the Lazarus IDE, make sure the form is selected by clicking it, move focus to the Object Inspector (F12), scroll down to the Name property (first column) and change the "Form1" entry (second column) to whatever you prefer.
It's less confusing to always leave the main form name as Form1 (with?its file name being specific to the project, I use the project name with a F appended at the end).? This way when you click View Forms you always know which is the main form. ?

It is even less confusing to give it the name MainForm if it is actually the mainform.
