I made a JDialog Swing form added a JTabbedPane and a JButton.  In the source view I did ctrl-R to rename the JButton from the default value jButton1 to "okButton" - this worked.  I then did the same thing to rename the field for jTabbedPane1, the rename dialog was activated as normal, and when I pressed OK I didn't get any error message, but the position in the editor changed and when I went back to see the variables, the jTabbedPane1 variable was not renamed.  I repeated this three times with the same effect.

Note that the rename works when done from the Design view.  I was using the Source view when this failed for jTabbedPane1 and also when it succeeded for jButton1

I am able to reproduce this issue in NetBeans 7.1.2 but it seems to work correctly in the lastest development build. So, it was fixed probably by some other change.
