NameMapping MappedObjects and aliases trees

Hello!

 

NameMapping has 2 trees - Mapped objects and Aliases. My understanding is, the former is the "original" tree, while the latter is a "copy" because, changes made to the former (for example, deleting an object) affects the latter, but not vice versa. My question is, if objects are named differently in the Aliases tree, then the objects in this tree do not anymore have the name assigned by the developers. In this case, how is TestComplete able to identify the right object with the Aliases name on tests? How are the objects on Aliases tree and Mapped objects tree referenced to each other?

 

Thanks in advance
