I am placing notes that call out material and below that callout and a note.
My workflow is tedious.
Place note
TYPE IN THE MATERIAL CALLOUT WITH A TEXTSYLE THAT HAS A BOX AROUND THE MATERIAL CALLOUT
THEN FOR THE LINES BELOW, I SELECT A NEW STYLE WITHOUT THE BOX.
I would like to automate this
I thought a good way would be
1. place all notes without the box
2. Select all notes
3. find all the text WD1 and replace the text-style for only WD1
anyway I could do this? Batch check text style
what would be nice is to have a list of common callouts that would be changed to have the text-style changed
That could be done with a custom program, but not with plain MicroStation tools. I can't think of a way in Plain MicroStation to select only a part of a text node (outside of the editor) - Select by Elements can filter by a string but it selects the entire element. And that only works for Text elements and Text Nodes. I don't think it works on Notes. Find (of Find & Replace Text) can find the string, but it is not a selection tool. And then there's the changing text style of only part of the note without using the text editor, which I don't think can be done without some programming magic.
