Replace old column name with new name in all fields involved

[Gustavo_Eduardo]

Occasionally it happens that we are making an app and, as is logical, we still do not have the structure because while we are doing it, we are realizing certain functionalities that we did not take into account when we started. Sometimes we prefer to change the names of the columns, however, when we do it and regenerate the structure, we must manually change the name of the column in all the fields.

My idea is:

It would be great to have the possibility that, when changing the column name, it is changed in all the places where it is involved, in this way we would increase the speed of app production immeasurably.

Greetings to all and thanks for allowing me to publish.

Section 4.3.2 explains how to replace text.

This will surely be a time saver.  Especially when we have already setup a lot of expressions using the old column name, and we decided to change the column name after some time.
