HI daniel You are right. Now a bit more context of our current work. We are working on this. The point is that the old refactoring code hardcoded in precondition the possible actions in an non user friendly way. Now in Pharo 13 and 14 we have introduced Drivers. A drivers is - using finer decomposition of preconditions to able to propose for example multiple actions such as executing another refactorings to a mere transformation Have a look at Remove Classes on a non empty or classes with subclasses to see what I mean. Now we are adding and reviewing slowly a driver to each refactorings. For the PullUp method the refact

Yes, I've run into this before. I think the reasoning is that, if you do not copy down the superclass implementation, this is not truly a refactoringâit will change the behavior of a selector that was already understood by the siblings.
Indeed this is what the refactoring should do in batch mode. Now in interactive mode then a driver should propose multiple alternatives.
But I agree that in many cases, this change of behavior is the desired outcome and having the option would be good. The simplest change would be to add a "Cancel" button, and make the "No" option do what you wantâperform the refactoring without adding the extra methods. Perhaps adding a warning to the text of the dialog like "Choosing 'No' may modify behavior." (ideally more detailed but I'm having trouble phrasing it concisely).
Now to be able to do it we have to rewrite all the conditions to not raise pop up but give enough information to the driver so that it can propose nice choices. S

There are two questions, but only response accepted. I just want a pull up with nothing extra done. If I click yes, I get the extra methods. If I click no, nothing at all happens.
Please advise, Thanks, Aik-Siong Koh
