N2 - To develop usable software, it is necessary to develop GUIs in iterative steps, such as evaluating usability of GUIs and improving GUIs. In improving GUIs, developers are often required to modify not only GUI codes but also logic codes of the software. In our research, to make GUI improvement easy, we propose a method for automatically searching for modification codes which developers are required to modify and suggesting how to modify them. To search for more appropriate modification codes, we define roles of widgets according to purposes of usages and patterns for how to change GUIs.
