Specifies whether to search the entire drawing, the current layout, or the
currently-selected object. If an object is already selected, then Selected Objects
is the default value. If no object is selected, then Entire Drawing is the default
value. You can use the Select Objects button to temporarily close the dialog
box and create or modify the selection set.
Select Objects Button
Closes the dialog box temporarily so that you can select objects in your
drawing. Press Enter to return to the dialog box.
When you select objects, Where to Check displays Selected Objects by default.
Advanced Find Options
Displays options to define the type of objects and words that you want to
find.
Replace
Replaces found text with the text that you enter in Replace With and moves
to the next instance of the found text if one exists.
Replace All
Finds all instances of the text that you enter in Find What and replaces it with
the text in Replace With.
The Where to Check setting controls whether to find and replace text in the
entire drawing or text in the currently selected object or objects.
Find
Finds the text that you enter in Find What. The first text object that matches
the search criteria is zoomed to. Once you find the first instance of the text,
the Find option acts like a Find Next, which you can use to find the next text
object.
Search Options
Defines the type of objects and words to be found.
Match Case
Includes the case of the text in Find What as part of the search criteria.
Find Whole Words Only
Finds only whole words that match the text in Find What. For example, if
you select Find Whole Words Only and search for “Front Door,” FIND does
not locate the text string “Front Doormat.”
