Describe the bug

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create python application named PythonAppication1
2. Create python application named PythonAppication2
3. Right-click in PythonAppication1 and select Add->reference..., select PythonApplication2 as referenced
4. Typing code in PythonApplication2.py

def add(a, b):
    print(a + b)

5. Typing code in PythonAppication1.py

import PythonApplication2
PythonApplication2.add(1,2)

6. Open PythonApplication2.py and select function name add and right-click to select rename...
7. Input a new name addTest in rename dialog and press enter

Expected behavior

The name add can be renamed as addTest both in PythonApplication2.py and PythonApplication1.py

Actual behavior

Nothing has changed.

Very weird. Only repros with the cross project reference. Otherwise rename works fine.

In today's build 17.1.0 Preview 3.0 [32030.14.main] , The name of the place where this method is called has not changed.

In today's build 17.2.0 Preview 2.0 [32228.339.main].In the same project, rename a method, but the method name of this method in other places where it is called has not changed

The original bug is reported for two projects, with one referencing the other. But the latest screenshots show this is broken for two files in the SAME project. We need to investigate and fix both of these cases if they still repro.

@ttSpace Can you please verify if this is still happening on the latest version of Visual Studio? For both single project and multiproject cases. Thank you!

@AdamYoblick In today's build 17.6.0 Preview 2.0 [33406.287.main], Python Package: 17.0.23033.1, In two Projects, Renamed only in PythonApplication2.py. The name of the place where this method is called has not changed. foo --> footest

This works fine for the two files in the SAME project. foo --> footest

@linette-zyy I was trying to repro this issue, how did you find the other project to add as reference? Mine shows nothing was found.
