 Here’s a user-friendly suggestion you can use for that screen:

 🔹 Top placeholder text (inside the editor area)

 Use something clear and instructional, like:

 “Enter your pattern name here…”
 or
 “Start by naming your pattern…”

 This helps users immediately understand what they should do first.
