Search and Replace
Search and replace
The search and replace function allows to to search for a text string
(or variable) in all objects in the template and replace it with another
string (or variable).
For example, you may make a template which contains D3PLOT objects that have the directories hard wired instead of using a variable for the directory. If you want to generalise the template you can use to replace every instance of the directory name in the template with a variable.
| Enter the search and replace strings in the dialog box. You can insert a variable if required by right clicking in the text box and selecting . |

Pressing will do the replace, pressing will skip this instance. If you want to just replace all instances without confirming each one in turn then press . |
