Probably asked for before but I would really like to see the calculations added to the find and replace function.
I sometimes want to rename some relation names for the sake of clarity. And I do that with a find and replace on ‘Everything’.
However, I still have to think of how, when en where I used that same relationship within a calculation.
Wouldn’t it be nice if we can solve that with an extra addition to find and replace in a calculation and that the search in ‘Everything’ is expanded to the calculations as well?!
I have another addition to that: I’d like to be able to “walk” through all methods that match my search. Right now, the first hit is shown and there you are stuck. I find myself changing the first hit into something else just to be able to jump to the next method containing the search criteria. After I have found all my 20 occurences, I have to change them all back again. And this will not even work, if you have a hit inside a module…
That one is simple to address. I use it all the time Just do a find and replace with the same value. Not 100% efficient but it works nevertheless…
Example: Find ‘globals.’ replace with ‘globals.’. Now all methods containing this value will appear in the method editor. Only issue here is that you have to save all methods but that is done fast enough since you don’t have to think.
First, no, it’s not a good solution but a workaround.
Second, don’t know but I guess it won’t work with modules. Not sure though since I don’t really use modules.
