Can't Refactor > Rename In Neon [message #1738134]

Hi all, I'm seeing an annoying problem that I'm hoping someone can help me with. Since upgrading to Neon, I can no longer Refactor > Rename (Alt + Shift + R) when trying to rename variable names throughout my JavaScript files. I end up receiving the error:

Quote:

Operation unavailable on the current selection

Select a javaScript project, source folder, resource, or a JavaScript file, or a non-readonly type, var, function, local variable, or type variable.

This is a function that I use very frequently and I can't seem to figure out why it's no longer working in Neon (I'm working in the same project and with the same files as I was previously). I've tried re-installing Eclipse and creating new projects and continue to see this issue, so it could be a bug, but figured I would ask here first for any ideas.

Thanks in advance!
