Any chances to run script automatically every time when I rename symbol?
It will be handy to siply check this option and forgot the plugin (and do not remember another shorcut).
Thanks

Unfortunately there is no action trigger for when something has been renamed. I asked about this a back in August (http://sketchplugins.com/d/70-using-the-action-api/27), to which I got the response "There are no actions artboard renaming no, and no quick action can be added for that either I'm afraid."

I have dug into the available actions in the past (http://developer.sketchapp.com/reference/action/), and ArtboardChanged or SelectionChanged are possible candidates, but I have not utilized them as they would trigger way too often, essentially making the plugin run constantly.

I appreciate the idea and feedback though, I would like the same functionality. I am definitely monitoring the situation.
