Change variable name in Stateflow model

Is there a way to change a signal name that is referenced troughout a Stateflow model without having to go through the whole model and manually change its' name?

I figured it should do this automatically if I change the name in the Model Explorer but unfortunately not :(

It seems this isn't possible so I'm hoping Mathworks will fix this since they have context-aware variable re-naming in their latest editor.

Does anyone know anything about this?

It is possible to do "Search & Replace..." in a Stateflow chart. You can find this menu entry under the "Tools" menu or using the shortcut Ctrl+L; see this link http://www.mathworks.com/help/toolbox/stateflow/ug/f8-1016134.html . It worked nicely for me. I have Stateflow 6.5 (R2006b). Hope it works as you intended.

This works very nicely, Thanks Adrian.

Perhaps it is possible from the command line, for example making use of Simulink.findVars . Take a look at Doug Eastman's solution to a related problem, this blog post, and this technical note.
