This tool will change the layer name (within the Layers Panel) to be the same as the layer name within the GPKG database to every open GPKG layer in the QGIS workspace. This tool is useful as sometimes when GPKG layers are opened in QGIS (depending on how they are opened) they will contain both the database name and layer name e.g. "database - layername". This tool then essentially strips the database name from the layer name in the Layers Panel.

If there are open layers that are not GPKG, then it will have no affect of these layer names.

Running the Tool

The tool is run by clicking the GPKG icon in the toolbar.
