Ever need to change a lot of text
entities in your drawing to read a new value? Maybe you have multiple
text strings that have last years date shown and you want to update all of
them to the current date.
A simple way to do this is to use
the FIND command. The FIND command will let you find any text string
in your file and replace it with a new entry. This can be done
individually or as a group. Enter FIND and type in your search
criteria. Fill in the "Replace with" area and choose the button which
best fits your needs. A very cool option here is the "Zoom to" button
which will allow you to preview all the instances of your search string if
need be.
Unfortunately, the tool will not
work for text that resides within a block definition, maybe in the next
version of AutoCAD we'll have a more thorough utility to scan everything in
your drawings.
