@ Zbigniew Wolanski, That's correct - the signal field names in Data Inspector are read-only by design. It is a pretty common frustration. If you need different names, you will have to rename the fields in your original data before opening the Data Inspector.

Hi Zbigniew,
To modify a signal field name in the Simulation Data Inspector, double-click directly on the signal name and type a new name. The updated name will then appear in the Data Inspector for that logged signal.
For more details, please refer to the documentation:

Hi Zbigniew,
I tried to replicate your problem on my end with a simpler version and I am attaching the file for your reference. For a better understanding of the issue, it would be helpful if you could share your files as well, so I can help you more effectively.
Hope this helps!
