Create a descendant: Package Editor / Add / New component / ... Test it and install it. Change class of one control: Designer / popup menu / Change Class There is no dialog/option yet to apply Change Class to all controls of a class on a form or on all forms of a project/package yet. Although if the class was only extended, then probably this will work: Close all designers and use Search / Find in Files / Replace on .pas/.lfm files. The .lrs files will be automatically updated by the IDE on compile.
