When renaming a table, dependent objects are not renamed

When I use Smart Rename to rename a table, neither the foreign keys nor the defaults are renamed. Suppose I have two tables, Table1 and Table2, and that Table1 has a relation that refers to Table2. SQL Server names this relation:

FK_Table1_Table2

Then I change the name of Table1 to Table1Rev with Smart Rename. The name of the foreign key should now be

FK_Table1Rev_Table2.

However, the change script generated by Smart Rename does not change the name of the foreign key.

    Hello,

    I'm sorry to say that SQL Refactor is not designed to automatically rename constraints when the table name changes. We can consider this as a feature request for a future version if there is sufficient demand.

    Thanks!
