nRF Connect Desktop: Show Characteristic & Service Names

[awneil]

On the Android app, I can define human-readable names for my custom Services & Characteristics.

How do I do that on the Desktop app?

It would be helpful if the UUIDs could be easily copied & pasted from the source file which defines them; eg, from Nordic's own Tutorial:

// FROM_SERVICE_TUTORIAL: Defining 16-bit service and 128-bit base UUIDs
#define BLE_UUID_OUR_BASE_UUID              {{0x23, 0xD1, 0x13, 0xEF, 0x5F, 0x78, 0x23, 0x15, 0xDE, 0xEF, 0x12, 0x12, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00}} // 128-bit base UUID
#define BLE_UUID_OUR_SERVICE_UUID                0xF00D // Just a random, but recognizable value

// ALREADY_DONE_FOR_YOU: Defining 16-bit characteristic UUID
#define BLE_UUID_OUR_CHARACTERISTC_UUID          0xBEEF // Just a random, but recognizable value

Is there a way to define the Base UUID as 128-bit, and then others as 16-bit ?

There doesn't seem to be any way to copy the UUIDs from the [desktop] app

However, it is possible to export them from the mobile app - and the exported file can be used with the Desktop app.
