Can I searche for an text location in design file?

Hi

I need to find geographic location in design file thruogh text search in design file, can I do this and how?

I need to find places where the text is beginning with VS and locate the text so I can rotete the hit text 90 degres.

Can I do this in Microstation?

I found this by visual search and got it rotated.

But if I want to find next in a huge area, ??

Best regards

Tom

  • Hi all

    Thank you Jon, but I needed only to read your link site where I found that there is an text searh in Microstation already.

    I suspected that but didn´t find it first. Here is how to search for text search/replace in microstation:

    And this text search is also searching in reference file text exactly what i needed.

    Best Regards

    Tom

    the native find text in microstation only  finds them one at a time  if your  not replacing them, but jons  tool puts them all in  a selection set  so presumabley  you could find them all in one go then change the angle via the  properties in one  shot .. the native tool  is one at a time to change the  properities of the rotation..
