Jim; What does your import structure look like? If some of the files you unselected are between those you do, then they could also be changed. E.g. suppose you have a 'main' that imports imp1 and imp1 imports imp2. You change something in imp2. In the pop-up box you leave main chosen and unselect imp1. Even though you've stated that imp1 should not be changed, imp1 could still be changed because it is imported by main, which you are changing. Hence imp1's will get opened. You can choose Close all for the file tabs. -- Scott On Mar 31, 12:04 pm, James A Miller james_a_mil...@raytheon.com wrote: Holger, Thanks--my setting is already 0 for the imported files-- My point is really that I *want* global renaming; and the initial pop-up does exactly what I want--it appears to identify which files (potentially) need to be changed.

OK-- I guess I misunderstood what the first pop-up was telling me--I assumed that it could show a small list because the URI that I am changing was only referenced in those places, which I then assumed would mean that none of the other files would get affected, and therefore would not be opened. Is there something I am not considering? Will a file change due to changing a URI, if that URI is not referenced there? The Close Others option works great, if you only had one tab opened to start with; if this action causes my 5 tabs to expand to 25, then it's a bit of a pain to get back to just the 5.

I have found the refactoring to work as I expect - following imports, etc. However, I would like to second the notion that opening (potentially) dozens of files and then leaving them open in the editors when the refactoring is done is at least inconvenient. It would be great if the refactoring code could close the editors that it opens when the refactoring is complete. As Jim points out, when you typically have 5-10 open, it is troublesome to selectively close an additional 20+ Tim From: topbraid-composer-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:topbraid-composer-us...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of James A Miller Sent: Tuesday, March 31, 2009 1:53 PM To: topbraid-composer-users@googlegroups.com Subject: [tbc-users] Re: GUI Annoyance OK-- I guess I misunderstood what the first pop-up was telling me--I assumed that it could show a small list because the URI that I am changing was only referenced in those places, which I then assumed would mean that none of the other files would get affected, and therefore would not be opened.

[tbc-users] Re: GUI Annoyance
Tim, I think it's dangerous to automatically close any modified files. The current policy is to leave them open with a (*) behind them to indicate that they contain unsaved changes. A quick save all in the end gives the user a better control IMHO. But I see the underlying problem - the system in fact open too many files than necessary. I have fixed this for the 3.0 release, so that only the directly checked files will be opened.
