Description kalle1 2016-05-22 12:32:52 UTC 
It'd be nice if the "Find usages" function available for (Java) variables in the code editor would be available from the GUI builder directly (e.g. in the context menu(s)).

I'm assuming that every component in the GUI builder is somehow bound to a specific variable and if that's not the case (can't imagine it) the function could be available only for components which are.
