Welcome to the forum, Jonzun Cool

1.) Source refactoring support is not present now, but that might change. Few people are trying to incorporate LLVM based code parser into theide which would allow such things. You are second person to request this feature in quite short time, I guess it is quite popular Smile

2.) Theide supports crossreferences. The commands are hidden in Assist menu, the default keyboard shortcuts are Alt+J and Alt+G. There are also other interesting functions useful for traversing large codebase, like history browsing: Alt+Left/Right arrow will take you back/forth to the places in code you were editing before.

3.) Analyzing the include graph would pretty easy to implement. The hard part is the display, drawing nice graphs is not trivial Smile

I usually use doxygen for this, it can generate a lot of interesting informations and schemas (requires graphviz to generate the diagrams).

Best regards,
Honza
