Project (Tags/UDTs/Views/Components/Scripts) Refactoring

Davide Ciocca
At the moment it is pretty much impossible to easily refactor tags, UDTs, Views, components' names and scripts without messing up the project integrity. This is a feature which is a must in a modern IDE and it is necessary to avoid to break all the project's references when simply renaming one of the aforementioned items.
Moreover, I suppose the search feature should be improved as well, adding a way to show all the cross-references connected to the selected item, similarly to what we already have in programming tools such as TIA Portal from Siemens.

I'd just like to add that I just renamed a template and now have to go through and set about 100 template components' "Template Path" properties to the updated template.
I'd love to see some movement on this. Renaming things in a pre-existing project is a pain that restricts changes that sometimes just need to happen.

As for a cross-reference tool, this is currently in the works. But refactoring would be massively useful!
