Rename Dialog for a Type or an Interface

Refactor | Rename
Shift+F6


Use this dialog to rename a type or an interface.

In addition to renaming the type or the interface itself, GoLand can also look for the usages of the type or the interface name. If found, the changes you are making to the type or the interface 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.

Note that regardless of the options selected, the search scope (places where you search for the name occurrences) is always limited to the current entity (for example, a file, or a type) and the entities that the current one depends on.
