It would be good to have a way of changing a compiler version, for example from Delphi 2010 to Delphi XE, in a number of actions at once.&nbsp; It cannot be done (that I&nbsp;can see)&nbsp;from Search and&nbsp;Replace.&nbsp; And I&nbsp;hoped that selecting a few dozen actions and using Edit Action Properties would change all of them, but it only changes the first one (without any warning that nothing happened to the others).&nbsp; Of course, this would need to be smart enough to reload the library path and do whatever else happens when a single item is changed in this way.

Any thoughts on when this might make it to the top of the pile? Though I have done them all individally now for this particular change.

It can be done from the Action inspector… the caveat is that you can only multi select actions that are at the same level in the actionlist tree. Other than that, I’m open to suggestions on how to do this… without hard coding something specific to the delphi action. The library path loading is done by the action property pages, so that’s only currently available when the action editor dialog is shown.
