Rename dialog for a table or column

Use this dialog to rename a table or column.

In addition to renaming the table or column itself, DataGrip can also look for the usages of the table or column name. If found, the changes you are making to the table or column name can also be applied to these usages.

The usages are assigned to different categories which correspond to the options which you can turn on and off.
