Hi all,

Does the Refactoring feature of Eclipse available in Servoy? Or I am missing at somewhere?

we already have things like rename form, move form and duplicate form (last one is not really refactor)

Hi Johan,

How can I rename my existing form name??

Does this renaming change all the references of that form automatically as it happens in Eclipse Refactoring??

It would be really handy if we can rename/move formVars, globalVars etc. and all the reference within the solution changed automatically.

There is one but and that probably is the one that you refer to and that is the changes in your methods/code. They are NOT refactored.  
I am pretty sure that Servoy will make that happen. If not I will make it part of the Analyzer for 4.0…
