Hi,

Is there a reason why the "abstract methods" refactoring dialog cannot be altered to show all virtual methods ? (maybe through some checkbox in the dialog, possibly a dropdown showing all parent classes for filtering)

When writing components, a popular method for overriding is Notification from TComponent. I consistently find myself looking for its declaration.

Or did I miss some already existing goodie in the IDE (always a possibility) ?

Well, virtual methods are not abstract anymore, are they? Then the dialog would need another name.
But beside this obvious reason, I see none.

You can select Notification in the completion box. For example: If your class has not yet a 'protected' section add one. Then add a new line. Press Ctrl-Space. Type 'no' to select Notification procedure. Press return. The header is added. Now press Ctrl+Shift+C.

Aha, I was right to ask :)

Thank you. This is more than sufficient for my needs :-)

The only use case for using the dialog is then if you want to override multiple , I think, is justification enough; but you just significantly lowered the urgency :)
