Description
I edit/save a Resource file outside of RIDE, then trigger RIDE to reload the file. Ride then updates the details in the left panel, but:-
-
When using CTRL-SPACE, is still displays the old names. (The tick indicates a variable that was not changed, the cross a variable that was renamed but is not shown when using CTRL-SPACE).

-
Within the Test Case, the new variables are flagged as invalid, but do work when executed.

Of course, restarting RIDE fixes the problem, but it would be great if this was not necessary.
Thanks
