If I change ID of an element in Android Studio, how do I carry on this change throughout the code?

For example, say I'm using a relative layout and a lot of views are centered around a TextView with ID of TextView. If I change this ID to TextView1, the other elements referencing it all break. How can I change the ID so that the changes are carried out?

Thanks in advance!

You can easily replace all ID's in one step, just press strg+r on windows.

In the first text field put in your old ID and in the second one the new ID, press Replace all and you're done.
