I almost hate to ask, but after I upgraded AC to 1.77.3 , the Player Name now shows in the dialogue box (see image).
Is there a toggle where I can turn this off, or is this by design? The name was not displaying in the previous version.
I'm sure it's something very simple that I am overlooking. Thanks in advance.

The name should show by default - did you hide previously from within the Menu Manager's Subtitles menu?
Check that you haven't reverted back to the default Managers - if you import AC in full, you will need to re-assign your Managers by double-clicking the ManagerPackage asset created by the New Game Wizard besides your game's Managers folder.
Thanks Chris, and yes I did a full AC import (note to self, always do a backup first...LOL). I guess I did not realize the name was classified as a submenu. I found what needed to be adjusted (image supplied in case anyone else needs to know).
THANKS again for putting up with all us novice game makers.

Your screenshot shows you're using the Demo_MenuManager asset file - you should avoid this if possible, since it will be overwritten each time you import AC updates - see the warning box towards the top.
If you haven't used the New Game Wizard already, you should do so - it'll create a new set of Managers for you that won't be affected by imports. If you have already, you'll just need to re-assign them.
A tutorial on this topic can be found here.
My rookie mistake...thanks for pointing this out Chris.
When I upgraded AC to 1.77.3 I guess it changed back to the default MenuManager. I changed back to mine and All Is Good...thanks again.
It will. You can avoid this by omitting the /AdventureCreator/Resources/References file from the import - otherwise, you can re-assign your Managers afterwards.
The Manual's "Updating Adventure Creator" chapter covers this in a little more detail.
