For some refactorings, you can preview changes before applying them.

2. Check the changes that are going to be made in the Find tool window. You can exclude Delete or remove Ctrl0X changes that you consider unnecessary.

   

3. Click Do Refactor to proceed with the changes.

When CLion encounters problems with your refactoring, it opens a dialog with the list of conflicts and their brief descriptions.

• Click Continue to ignore the problem and proceed to open the preview in the Find tool window.

  For example, you can try to exclude an entry from refactoring by pressing Delete or click Cancel and return to the editor.
