Description Petr Pisl 2007-06-07 15:19:36 UTC
If I have package structure in the list view in Project tab like this:

package1.package2
    class1.java
package1.package2.package3
    class2.java
....

and I want to rename package1 I have to do the rename for all packages in the
package list view or switch to the tree view. I think the rename dialog should
have option "Rename subpackages", which will be by default switch off in the
list view. So user doesn't have to switch between the views.

It seems to me this is a reversion: see https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=61772

Also, this is simply basic functionality. At this stage of the product's maturity there shouldn't be any question of having the obvious package rename functionality with renaming of sub-packages as a user option.
