Find Command Names and Search Strings

Concept

Procedure

Quick Reference

You can search one or more CUI files for commands or search strings (including commands or user interface element names, command display names, descriptions, macros, and tags). You can also replace commands or search strings one at a time or all at once.

You can limit or expand your search depending on the search results you want to achieve.

• Limit the search to commands located in the Command List pane. This search does not include the names of user interface elements, the commands that are associated to them, and their properties. For example, if you limit the search for the LINE command in the Command List only, a message similar to the following is displayed when you start your search: “Search string found in command 'Dimension, Linear' property 'Name' at position 11 (1/12).”
• Expand the search to include all properties in all tree view nodes in the Customizations In pane. This type of search finds all instances or a search string. For example, if you search for the string “line” and start in the tree view, a message similar to the following is displayed: “Search string found in ‘Linear’ property ‘Name’ at position 0 (1/55).”
