In a class, all inherited methods are show in 'display' format and the characters are shown in blue (highlighted). You can't change the name of the method, change parameters or whatever. All other methods are shown in 'edit' mode. Now for all methods inherited from superclass(es) only the redefined methods are shown in 'black' characters in stead of blue. These methods are the ones that are redefined. If you double click on the non-redefined methods, you get a pop-up message, saying that this method is implemented in superclass 'XXX'. For the redefined methods, this will not be the case.

ABAP Objects questions go in the ABAP Objects forum - I've fixed that for you.

Now, go to SE24, display the class. Click on the icon for display object list. On the right side of the screen you'll get a window with a tree in it, showing the components of the class. Methods are divided into a number of sections. One of these is "Redefined methods".

Matt,

this is definitely the more elegant solution.

I discovered it by accident. It works for SE38 as well, which is really useful if you've local classes. Gives more room for the tree than SE80!

Additionally to what Guys suggested, you can also see all methods grouped accordinig to class membership.

In SE24 -> display class -> select Filter icon -> choose Group by interfaces and superclasses .

This is nice way to distinguish where the method really comes from.

Marcin
