Do you have a preference where in your program you create you measured results. I find if I wait till the end of the program it takes longer because I have to go back and identify my features.
So once I've named my datums I'll create the results while the ID's are still fresh in my head.
Almost all (about 98%) of my programs run this way:
1. Opening sub programs / scripts
2. Alignments
3. Geometry and movement
4. Construction geometry
5. Alignments (yes all in one place and recall them everywhere else)
6. Import/Export data for/from other operations.
7. Dimensions (legacy only of course)
8. Closing sub programs / scripts
I don't worry about naming geometry features, though, I do have a script to renumber them all from small to large but only to calm my OCD. My dimensions are numbered to a ballooned drawing and when I troubleshoot parts I search up these and jump to the features and/or ctrl mouse click them on the graphics screen. My parts are small to medium sized. It takes me waaaaay tooo long to come up with meaningful names and/or keeping them short and sweet. I think if I did more model based stuff (where there are zero to no hard call outs) I would definitely name everything.
