I can't get the refactoring function to work.
I can highlight code and select refactor but it always says there is nothing available. I'm just looking for a function extractor. (It will be of real help to my students.)
Is there something else I'm supposed to be doing or is it still broken?
Thanks
Hi @dpetticrew . Unfortunately it is still broken. This bug is being tracked by the Arduino IDE developers here:

priority: medium
topic: code
type: imperfection
phase: design
criticality: medium
### Describe the problem
Right clicking on the sketch editor view opens a con… text menu that offers various useful operations that can be done on the selection:
🐛 The "**Refactor...**" and "**Source Action...**" context menu items don't appear to be usable with Arduino sketches. They increase the complexity and clutter of the Arduino IDE user interface without adding anything of value.
### To reproduce
1. Select any code in the sketch editor view.
1. Right click on the selection.
1. Select "**Refactor...**" from the context menu.
😕 A tooltip appears: "**No refactorings available**"
1. Right click on the selection.
1. Select "**Source Action...**" from the context menu.
😕 A tooltip appears: "**No source actions available**"
### Expected behavior
All items in the editor context menu are useful.
### Arduino IDE version
