Description Markus Keller CLA 2007-08-06 06:58:45 EDT 
From bug 192638: If refactorings find potential matches, we show a warning that suggests to review problems on the preview page, but pressing "Continue" does not show the preview page. We should offer a way to show the preview page in theis case, and there should be a filter group for potential matches.

It is not possible to see the preview only for rename refactoring because it starts in linked mode. If the refactoring wizard is open for example with Move Refactoring (with snippet from bug 361869) you can see the preview.

Looks like several people, including me, found the warning message a bit confusing/vague (see bug 363257 and bug 361869), hence I guess warning message can also be improved
e.g. "Found potential matches" becomes "Found potential matches for {Java element}"

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
