The commands "Set Lisp Symbol Names" and "Reset Event Names" have to be started for every single dialogue. Sometime that's fine, sometimes its annoying.

I want to suggest a new command
"Set Lisp Symbol Names" and "Reset Event Names" for all dialogues

It's probably rarely used, and I think not worth the effort, but nevertheless you should add this as a feature request.

A "side-question" of this topic - these three dialogues, e.g. "Modify Autolisp Symbol Names", have

- the checkbox "Update all..." in the middle of the dialogue and
- "Yes / No" buttons at the bottoms.

I did not understand the checkbox - if I unselect it and press "Yes", what should happen? It seems nothing ...
So only the combination of "Checkbox + Yes" does everything, all other combination does nothing?

If you uncheck the toggle and press [Yes], only the current control is modified. The current control can be the form itself.

Maybe I understand it not correctly, but ...

- when the "current control" is the form, it works as you wrote.
- But when the "current control" is e.g. a Text button, then nothing happens on this control. It is only activated when "All controls" is set.
