In text based programming languages there is Find and Replace, which allows you to rename things.

yes but in some languages you have lots of files for each part of the project and if you change it in one file it may effect other projects that also link to that file.

You could make a program to Find and Replace all of the files.

But what if several projects share a single file?

This would be very helpful. I support! big_smile

Thanks fruitmanninja. I now have 20 supporters. Don't forget to vote for this on the Scratch Suggestions website. I currently only have 10 votes. This idea deserves more votes.

I support. It's annoying to have to delete a variable, create a new variable, then change all of the scripts again.

trinary · 2012-02-05 15:54:51

I agree, it would be quite useful, say, if you made an error naming something, so I support!

Can't you rename costumes already though?

Except it doesn't change all the values in blocks then. wink

Please give an example.

Please give an example.

In C++ you have header files and implementation files that contain function declarations and definition and any project can link to any implementation and header files so more than one project can share a file. Also what if you had functions and variables with similar names like if there was a variable called counter and a function called reset_counter they would both be changed by the find and replace program.

Some IDEs allow you to right click and rename about anything (have you ever used eclipse).
